Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Muffin Bars 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.
Modified Starches (Modified Cornstarch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
Emulsifiers (Glycerin, Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
Stabilizers & Gums (Cellulose Gum, Xanthan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Cakes & Pastries, this product is more processed than about 16% of the 11,919 products we've analyzed.

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