Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Juju Stars scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavors): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Other Additives (Carnauba Wax): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
Within Candy, this is among the less processed of the 21,778 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
