Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Nut and Caramel Collection 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 Fats (Partially Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil (Cottonseed, Soybean)): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
- Artificial Flavors (Artificial Roman Punch Flavor (Water, Artificial Flavor, Propylene Glycol, Artificial Flavors)): Synthetic flavors indicate industrial food production.
- Natural Flavors (Pure Vanilla Extract (Water, Ethyl Alcohol, Vanilla Bean Extractives)): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Other Additives (Propylene Glycol): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
Within Chocolate, this product is more processed than about 67% of the 9,618 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
