Yogurt & Berry

Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

• Emulsifiers (Vegetable Glycerine, Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
• Sugar Alcohols (Maltitol, Sorbitol): Modified sweeteners common in diet UPF products.
• Processed Dairy Ingredients (Soy Protein Isolate, Milk Protein Concentrate): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
• Natural Flavors (Natural Flavors, Vanillin): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Snack & Energy Bars, this product is more processed than about 65% of the 8,001 products we've analyzed.

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