Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Modified Fats (Hydrogenated Palm Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
  • Artificial Flavors (Vanillin (An Artificial Flavor)): Synthetic flavors indicate industrial food production.
  • Processed Fruit Products (Cocoa Processed With Alkali, Cocoa): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
  • Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.

Within Candy, this product is more processed than about 32% 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.
