What You Should Know

You'd most often find this in the kids' snack or lunchbox aisle — a squeezable applesauce pouch tossed into school lunches, backpacks, or pantry for quick on‑the‑go bites. It feels wholesome and nostalgic, but the smooth, single‑serve texture, use of puree/concentrate and airtight pouch reflect industrial processing rather than a freshly scooped apple (indicative of a processed product, NOVA 3).

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

Ingredients are primarily organic apple puree and concentrates with minimal additives, but the industrial preparation and single‑serve pouch packaging classify it as a processed product rather than minimally processed whole fruit.
