What You Should Know

You'd find this 10-ounce pack of ginger snap cookies on the supermarket cookie aisle or tucked into the seasonal/holiday section — an easy, grab-and-go treat for movie nights, lunchboxes, or a tea break. It gives a comforting, slightly indulgent nostalgia with a crisp snap from refined flours and sweet molasses, but the ingredient list and additives point to industrial formulation. The presence of enriched flour, multiple added sugars, emulsifier and chemical leaveners signals highly processed texture and shelf-stability typical of ultra-processed products.

NOVA Score:4 / 4

Ultra-Processed

Why this score?

These ingredients and processing steps are used to engineer texture, flavor and shelf-life, consistent with NOVA group 4.
