Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Sours Chewy Fruit Candy! scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Fats (Hydrogenated Palm Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
- Processed Meats (Gelatin): Mechanically separated and reformed meats are UPF markers.
Within Candy, this product is more processed than about 32% of the 21,778 products we've analyzed.
