Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

  • Emulsifiers (Glycerin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
  • Natural Flavors (Pure Vanilla Extract, Natural Flavors, Coffee): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Xanthan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.

Within Cookies & Crackers, this product is more processed than about 51% of the 18,630 products we've analyzed.

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