Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup Solids): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
  • Natural Flavors (Monosodium Glutamate, Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
  • Plant Proteins (Hydrolyzed Soy Protein): Isolated proteins require extensive industrial processing.
  • Other Additives (Sodium Diacetate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.

Within Chips & Crisps, this product is more processed than about 85% of the 10,682 products we've analyzed.
