Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

Made from organic fruit and carrot puree with added lemon juice concentrate and ascorbic acid for preservation/color and packaged as single-serve pouches; these are signs of processing (pureeing, heat/preservation) but lack the industrial additives and formulations typical of ultra-processed foods, so it aligns with NOVA 3 (processed foods).
