In our analysis, Oatmeal with Vanilla Instant Rolled Oats scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Artificial Sweeteners (Sucralose): Synthetic sweeteners are definitive UPF markers.
- Natural Flavors (Vanilla Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
