Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Vanilla Grade a Milk scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Artificial Flavors (Natural & Artificial Flavor): Synthetic flavors indicate industrial food production.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Carrageenan): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Within Milk, this product is more processed than about 77% of the 4,301 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
