Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Pringles Crisps Cheeseburger 5.96oz scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Artificial Colors (Blue 1 Lake, Red 40 Lake, Yellow 6 Lake): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Emulsifiers (Mono- And Diglycerides): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Monosodium Glutamate, Natural Smoke Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Plant Proteins (Hydrolyzed Soy Protein): Isolated proteins require extensive industrial processing.
- Flavor Enhancers (Disodium Inosinate, Disodium Guanylate): Industrial flavor enhancement common in UPF.
Within Chips & Crisps, this product is more processed than about 85% of the 10,682 products we've analyzed.
