Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Chocolate Instant Pudding, Chocolate scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Starches (Modified Cornstarch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Processed Fruit Products (Cocoa): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
- Other Additives (Sodium Phosphates): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
- Emulsifiers (Mono- And Diglycerides): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
Within Puddings & Gelatin, this product is more processed than about 36% of the 1,991 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
