Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Pecan Pie scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Stabilizers & Gums (Xanthan Gum. Filling: Light Corn Syrup): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Vanilla Extract): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Ice Cream & Frozen Desserts, this is among the less processed of the 14,928 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
