What You Should Know

You'd spot this multipack in the kids' snacks or refrigerated shelf near yogurt cups and squeezable fruit pouches — a go-to for lunchboxes, after-school snacks, or road trips. It reads wholesome and nostalgic, offering the comforting simplicity of applesauce with the convenience of single-serve packaging. The short ingredient list and smooth pureed texture reflect basic cooking/pureeing and a small preservative (ascorbic acid) to retain color, indicating light industrial processing rather than heavy reformulation.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

Contains only organic apples plus ascorbic acid for color retention and is industrially pureed/packaged, so it's processed for shelf-stability rather than being an ultra-processed formulation with multiple additives or techno-functional ingredients.
