What You Should Know

You'd spot this 12 oz trail mix on the snacks aisle or grab it for a hiking day, road trip, or to stash in your office drawer. It gives a wholesome, convenient vibe — a crunchy, slightly sweet mix that feels familiar and ready-to-eat. The ingredients show light industrial processing (roasted nuts, added seed oils, and sweetened dried cranberries), which explains the uniform crunch and glossy fruit pieces and hints at a processed-but-simple formulation.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

Contains whole foods (nuts, cranberries) but includes added cane sugar, refined/pressed seed oils, and industrial roasting/packaging; these processing steps and added ingredients align with NOVA Group 3 (processed foods) rather than ultra-processed formulations with many additives.
