Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Mini Candy Corn & Chocolate Peanuts 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.
- Processed Meats (Gelatin): Mechanically separated and reformed meats are UPF markers.
- Artificial Colors (Yellow 6, Yellow 5, Red 3): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Other Additives (Confectioner'S Glaze (Shellac)): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
Within Nuts & Seeds, this product is more processed than about 84% of the 20,883 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
