Why Does This Score Highly Processed?

In our analysis, Maynards Midget Gems Candy scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

  • Processed Meats (Gelatine): Mechanically separated and reformed meats are UPF markers.
  • Modified Starches (Modified Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
  • Other Additives (Acids (Citric Acid, Acetic Acid)): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.

Within Candy, this is among the less processed of the 21,778 products we've analyzed.

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