Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup, High Fructose Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Artificial Colors (Yellow 6, Blue 1, Red 40): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Guar Gum, Cellulose Gum, Xanthan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.

Within Ice Cream & Frozen Desserts, this product is more processed than about 38% 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.
