Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Artificial Colors (Yellow 5, Yellow 6, Red 40, Blue 1, Titanium Dioxide, Yellow 5 Lake, Yellow 6 Lake, Red 40 Lake, Blue 1 Lake): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
  • Chemical Preservatives (Bht): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Gum Base (Soy)): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
  • Other Additives (Confectioner'S Glaze, Carnauba Wax): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.

Within Gum & Mints, this product is more processed than about 23% of the 1,470 products we've analyzed.

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