Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

  • Artificial Colors (Red 40 Lake, Red 40, Red 3, Blue 2, Yellow 6): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
  • Artificial Flavors (Natural And Artificial Flavor (Contains Milk)): Synthetic flavors indicate industrial food production.
  • Chemical Preservatives (Tbhq): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
  • Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
  • Other Additives (Carnauba Wax, Confectioner'S Glaze): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.

Within Cookies & Crackers, this product is more processed than about 51% of the 18,630 products we've analyzed.

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