Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Pecan Kringle scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Fats (Interesterified Soybean Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Artificial Flavors (Natural & Artificial Flavors (Milk)): Synthetic flavors indicate industrial food production.
- Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
- Plant Proteins (Soy Protein): Isolated proteins require extensive industrial processing.
Within Cakes & Pastries, this product is more processed than about 16% of the 11,919 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
