Organic Mesa Sunrise Cereal, 26.4 OZ
What You Should Know
You'd find this in the cereal aisle or the organic/whole‑foods section, grabbed for quick breakfasts, pantry stockups, or a simple snack. It gives a wholesome, slightly nostalgic vibe — crunchy, lightly sweet cereal made from milled/puffed grains and seeds — and the short ingredient list (corn/flours, cane sugar, seeds, salt, and a tocopherol antioxidant) points to conventional processing (milling/extrusion/drying) rather than heavy industrial reformulation, placing it closer to processed foods than highly engineered ultraprocessed products.

Why this score?
Made from whole grains, seeds and added cane sugar with only a minimal additive (tocopherols) and likely produced by milling/extrusion into ready-to-eat flakes, this matches the characteristics of processed foods (NOVA 3) rather than the multi-ingredient industrial formulations typical of NOVA 4.
