Why Does This Score Highly Processed?

- Stabilizers & Gums (Xanthan Gum, Guar Gum, Carrageenan): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavors): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Plant-Based Milk, this product is more processed than about 44% of the 1,441 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
