Yes — Fruit Gummies is ultra-processed.
A sweet, highly formulated treat—not ideal for everyday eating.
Fruit Gummies are ultra-processed because they contain glucose syrup, an industrially processed sugar; gelling agent (pectin), an extracted additive; acidity regulator (sodium citrate), an industrial additive; and natural lemon, orange, cherry, strawberry, apple, and elderberry flavourings, which are extracted flavouring additives. These ingredients indicate an industrial formulation. Sugar, acids, caramel sugar syrup, and spirulina extract do not independently determine the classification.
Yes — Fruit Gummies is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). Fruit Gummies are ultra-processed because they contain glucose syrup, an industrially processed sugar; gelling agent (pectin), an extracted additive; acidity regulator (sodium citrate), an industrial additive; and natural lemon, orange, cherry, strawberry, apple, and elderberry flavourings, which are extracted flavouring additives. These ingredients indicate an industrial formulation. Sugar, acids, caramel sugar syrup, and spirulina extract do not independently determine the classification.
Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are industrial formulations made with ingredients and additives you wouldn't find in a home kitchen — such as emulsifiers, artificial flavourings, colourings and modified starches. The classification is based on the NOVA system used by researchers and dietitians worldwide.
