What You Should Know

You'd find DANG Pineapple Thai Rice Chips in the snack aisle or near specialty Asian snacks — a tropical, crunchy chip that pops up for movie nights or when you want a sweet-savory treat. It feels playful and indulgent, but the crisp shelf-stable texture and ingredients like glucose syrup and palm fruit oil point to industrial formulation rather than a minimally processed snack.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:4 / 4

Ultra-Processed

Why this score?

Formulated snack with refined ingredients (glucose syrup, palm fruit oil, added sugars) and a manufactured crunchy texture consistent with ultraprocessed foods (NOVA 4). While it contains recognizable items like pineapple and sticky rice, the presence of industrial sweeteners and oils and likely extrusion/frying processing support a highest UPF classification.
