What You Should Know

You'd spot these in the snack aisle or the organic/health-food section, grabbed for movie nights, road trips, or packed into kids' lunches. The brand leans into nostalgic cheese-puff comfort while presenting a 'healthier' organic spin; the airy, uniformly shaped crunch and added flavor systems reflect industrial extrusion and formulation. Ingredients like tapioca solids, nonfat dry milk and yeast extract signal processing beyond home-style cooking despite the organic label.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:4 / 4

Ultra-Processed

Why this score?

Industrial extrusion and formulation with isolated starches (tapioca solids), dairy powders, concentrated flavorings (organic flavor, yeast extract) and other processed components indicate an ultra-processed product rather than minimally processed or culinary-ingredient based food.
