Peanut Butter Schmier

Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Peanut Butter Schmier scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

• Modified Fats (Partially Hydrogenated Vegetable Oils): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
• Corn-Based Sweeteners (Cottonseed, Rapeseed And Soybean Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
• Stabilizers & Gums (Cellulose Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.

Within Nut & Seed Butters, this product is more processed than about 98% of the 2,770 products we've analyzed.
