What You Should Know

You'd find this 14 oz can in the baking aisle or pantry when stocking up for pies, tres leches, or sweetened coffee — it also appears in many Latin American and comfort-food recipes. The vibe is nostalgic and indulgent: thick, very sweet and creamy, made to deliver rich desserts quickly; the short organic-ingredients list (milk and sugar) and concentrated texture come from evaporating milk and adding sugar, which points to a processed product rather than an ultra-processed formulation.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

Processed Food

Why this score?

Made by concentrating milk and adding sugar with no industrial additives, this is a processed food (NOVA 3) — shelf-stable and transformed from the original ingredient but not a multi-ingredient ultra-processed formulation.

Common Questions about Organic Sweetened Condensed Milk, 14 OZ

Well, 'healthy' can be a bit subjective! This sweetened condensed milk is organic, which is a plus if you're looking for fewer chemicals and pesticides. However, it's high in sugar, so while it can be a delightful treat in moderation, it’s not exactly a health food. Think of it as a sweet indulgence rather than a staple.
