Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

  • Modified Fats (Liquid And Partially Hydrogenated Soybean Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
  • Chemical Preservatives (Sodium Benzoate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
  • Artificial Flavors (Natural & Artificial Flavor): Synthetic flavors indicate industrial food production.
  • Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin, Vegetable Mono & Diglycerides): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.

Within Cream & Butter, this product is more processed than about 86% of the 3,591 products we've analyzed.

Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
