Mango Roll

Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Mango Roll scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

• Chemical Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
• Stabilizers & Gums (Mango Filling [Fructose, Mango Puree, Water, Sugar, Passion Fruit Puree, Modified Food Starch, Glucose, Natural And Artificial Flavors, Locust Bean Gum, Citric Acid, Potassium Sorbate (Preservative), Erythorbic Acid, Salt, Fd&C Yellow 5 & 6], Guar & Xanthan Gums, Gum Acacia): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
• Emulsifiers (Glycerin, Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
• Natural Flavors (Natural Flavors): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
• Other Additives (Propylene Glycol): 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.
