Organic Flavored Gelato

Why Does This Score Highly Processed?

In our analysis, Organic Flavored Gelato scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

• Stabilizers & Gums (Guar Gum*): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
• Natural Flavors (Vanilla Extract*): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Ice Cream & Frozen Desserts, this is among the less processed of the 14,928 products we've analyzed.

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