Barcode 8000500455104

Yes — Apple-Flavored Fruit Slices is ultra-processed.

Not a great choice for everyday, due to added flavoring.

This product is ultra-processed because it contains natural flavoring, an extracted flavor additive used to modify taste. Rice syrup is a traditional sweetener and is not classified as UPF here. The other ingredients—date paste, concentrated apple purée, dried apple, almonds, rice pieces, potato starch, water, and sunflower oil—are not sufficient on their own to make the product ultra-processed.
