Why Does This Score Highly Processed?

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

• Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup, Corn Syrup Solids): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
• Processed Dairy Ingredients (Sodium Caseinate* (A Milk Derivative)): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
• Emulsifiers (Mono- And Diglycerides, Polysorbate 60): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
• Other Additives (Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
• Stabilizers & Gums (Carrageenan): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
