What You Should Know

You'd spot these SmartSweets Sweet Fish gummies in the candy or 'better-for-you' snack aisle and toss a pouch into a movie-night stash, lunchbox, or purse for a playful, nostalgic sweet hit. Their chewy, glossy texture and low-sugar positioning come from industrial ingredients (pectin, modified potato starch, isolated fibers and waxes), signaling a reformulated, ultra-processed candy rather than a simple natural treat.

Ultra-Processed

Why this score?

The ingredient list includes industrially processed components (isomalto-oligosaccharides, chicory root fiber, modified potato starch, stevia, natural flavors, carnauba wax) and additives used to recreate candy texture and appearance, which is characteristic of ultra-processed foods. The product is a reformulated confection designed to mimic a traditional gummy with reduced sugar, fitting NOVA group 4.
