In our analysis, Lunchables Cookie Dunks scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Dextrin): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.

Within Other Snacks, this product is more processed than about 65% of the 7,439 products we've analyzed.
