Why Does This Score Highly Processed?

In our analysis, Hot Cocoa Mix scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

Processed Fruit Products (Dutch Cocoa (Processed With Alkali)): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
Stabilizers & Gums (Cellulose Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Natural Flavors (Natural Flavors): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Drink Mixes, this product is more processed than about 30% of the 4,985 products we've analyzed.

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