Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

  • Modified Fats (Partially Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil (Soybean Oil)): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
  • Chemical Preservatives (Bht): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
  • Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Methylcellulose, Agar-Agar, Locust Bean Gum, +3 more): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
  • Other Additives (Propylene Glycol): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.

Within Cakes & Pastries, this product is more processed than about 16% of the 11,919 products we've analyzed.

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