Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Snack Bars, Chocolate Chip scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Artificial Sweeteners (Sucralose): Synthetic sweeteners are definitive UPF markers.
- Plant Proteins (Soy Protein Crisps (Soy Protein Isolate, Tapioca Starch, Rice Flour, Cocoa [Processed With Alkali], Salt, Barley Malt)): Isolated proteins require extensive industrial processing.
- Processed Fruit Products (Chocolate Flavored Chips (Maltitol, Chocolate Liquor [Processed With Alkali], Cocoa Butter, Sorbitan Tristearate, Soy Lecithin, Vanilla Flavoring)): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
- Processed Dairy Ingredients (Soy Protein Isolate): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Cellulose Gel, Guar Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Within Snack & Energy Bars, this product is more processed than about 65% of the 8,001 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
