Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Selected Almonds scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Fats (Hydrogenated Soy Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
- Natural Flavors (Monosodium Glutamate, Natural Smoke Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Nuts & Seeds, this product is more processed than about 66% of the 20,883 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
