Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Processed Dairy Ingredients (Whey Protein Concentrate (Whey Protein Concentrate, Soy Lecithin)): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
  • Natural Flavors (Natural Vanilla Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Cookies & Crackers, this product is more processed than about 51% of the 18,630 products we've analyzed.

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