Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Mandarin Oranges in Orange Gel scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Artificial Colors (Yellow 6 Color): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Other Additives (Jelly Powder (Carrageenan, Gellan Gum, Locust Bean Gum, Xanthan Gum, Potassium Citrate, Sodium Citrate)): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
- Natural Flavors (Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Puddings & Gelatin, this is among the less processed of the 1,991 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
