Organic Blueberry Granola

Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Organic Blueberry Granola scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

• Plant Proteins (Pea Protein Crisps* (Pea Protein*, Rice Starch*), Hemp Protein Powder* (Hemp Protein Concentrate*, Natural Plant Extracts)): Isolated proteins require extensive industrial processing.
• Processed Dairy Ingredients (Pea Protein Concentrate*): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
• Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Breakfast Cereal, this product is more processed than about 77% of the 9,419 products we've analyzed.

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