Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup, Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Chemical Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate And Sodium Benzoate Added As Preservatives): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
  • Artificial Colors (Red 40 And Sulfur Dioxide): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.

Within Jams & Spreads, this product is more processed than about 97% of the 3,925 products we've analyzed.

Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
