Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Kellogg's Pop-Tarts Chocolate Chip 3.67oz scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup, Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Processed Meats (Gelatin): Mechanically separated and reformed meats are UPF markers.
- Artificial Colors (Yellow 6 Lake, Blue 2 Lake, Red 40 Lake, +1 more): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Processed Fruit Products (Cocoa Processed With Alkali): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
- Other Additives (Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
Within Cakes & Pastries, this product is more processed than about 16% of the 11,919 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
