Real Fruit Pops

Why Does This Score Highly Processed?

In our analysis, Real Fruit Pops scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

• Stabilizers & Gums (Guar Gum*): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
• Processed Fruit Products (Cocoa, Cocoa Processed With Alkali): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
• Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.

Within Ice Cream & Frozen Desserts, this is among the less processed of the 14,928 products we've analyzed.

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