Question

which choice is an example of an ultra - processed food?
o a. fruit gummies
o b. canned pear slices
o c. frozen blueberries
o d. 100 percent pure orange juice

Explanation:

Ultra - processed foods are made from substances derived from foods (such as proteins, fats, starches, and sugars) and often contain additives like flavors, colors, emulsifiers, or other cosmetic additives. Fruit gummies are highly processed with added sugars, artificial flavors, and colors. Canned pear slices (minimally processed for preservation), frozen blueberries (minimally processed for preservation), and 100 percent pure orange juice (minimally processed from the fruit) are not ultra - processed.

Answer:

A. Fruit gummies
