Magnum

Barcode 8711327660915
Ultra-Processed Food (UPF)

Yes — Magnum is ultra-processed.

An occasional treat, but not ideal for everyday eating.

Magnum is ultra-processed because it contains several industrial formulations and additives: glucose syrup and glucose-fructose syrup are industrially processed sugar syrups; lecithins and E471 are emulsifiers; locust bean gum and guar gum are stabilisers; natural vanilla flavourings and flavourings are added flavouring substances; and carotenes are an added colour. These ingredients indicate substantial industrial formulation beyond basic culinary processing.
