Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Milkshakes scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup, High Fructose Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Artificial Colors (Red 40 (Artificial Color)): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Other Additives (Stabilizer (Guar Gum, Carrageenan)): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavors): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Milk, this product is more processed than about 93% of the 4,301 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
