Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Vanilla Plant-Based Milk scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Plant Proteins (Pea Protein Blend (Water, Pea Protein)): Isolated proteins require extensive industrial processing.
- Natural Flavors (Vanilla Extract, Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Guar Gum, Gellan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Within Plant-Based Milk, this product is more processed than about 44% of the 1,441 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
