What You Should Know

Find these peach rings in the candy or natural-snacks aisle — a low-sugar take on the classic gummy you might toss in your cart for movie night or to pack in a lunchbox. They deliver a nostalgic, indulgent bite but are marketed as a 'healthier' alternative by swapping sugar for fiber and non-nutritive sweeteners. The chewy texture, shiny wax coating and a long list of modified starches, fiber isolates, acids and flavorings reflect extensive industrial processing typical of ultra-processed products.
