Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, The Chewy Mint Cinnamon Candy, Cinnamon scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Fats (Hydrogenated Coconut Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Gellan Gum, Sodium Carboxymethylcellulose, Gum Arabic): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Other Additives (Carnauba Wax, Beeswax): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
Within Candy, this is among the less processed of the 21,778 products we've analyzed.
