Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Italian Cookies scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

  • Natural Flavors (Vanilla Extract): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
  • Processed Fruit Products (Chocolate Sprinkles (Cocoa Powder, Cocoa Butter, Skim Milk Powder, Milk Fat, Soy Lecithin), Chocolate Chips (Cocoa Powder, Palm Oil, Soy Lecithin)): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.

Within Cookies & Crackers, this product is more processed than about 51% of the 18,630 products we've analyzed.

Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
