Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Quaker Cwy Granola Bars Chocolate Chip scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Fats (Partially Hydrogenated Palm Kernel And Palm Oil (Adds A Dietarily Insignificant Amount Of Trans Fat), Partially Hydrogenated Soybean Oil (Adds A Dietarily Insignificant Amount Of Trans Fat)): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Corn Syrup Solids): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Chemical Preservatives (Bht): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Emulsifiers (Glycerin, Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
- Processed Fruit Products (Cocoa, Cocoa Processed With Alkali): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
Within Breakfast Cereal, this product is more processed than about 77% of the 9,419 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
