Why Does This Score Highly Processed?

In our analysis, Vanilla Wafers scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

Modified Fats (Non-Hydrogenated Shortening (Palm Oil)): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
Stabilizers & Gums (Cellulose, Modified Cellulose): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Natural Flavors (Natural Flavors): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Cookies & Crackers, this product is more processed than about 17% 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.
