What You Should Know

You’d spot this in the canned fruit aisle or your pantry when you need a quick fruit add-on for lunches, yogurt, or a kid-friendly snack. It gives a wholesome, slightly nostalgic vibe—think school lunches and simple desserts—and feels convenient and practical rather than indulgent. The canning and juice-packing soften the segments and extend shelf life; because the ingredient list is only fruit and fruit juice, it’s processed but not heavily reformulated, more a preserved fruit than an ultraprocessed formulation.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

Canned fruit in its own juice is preserved and heat-treated (canning), so it is classified as processed (NOVA 3). The simple ingredient list (only fruit and fruit juice) means it lacks the industrial additives and reformulation typical of ultra-processed foods (NOVA 4).
