Summary

This product consists solely of raw cane demerara sugar, which is a processed culinary ingredient. While it is less refined than white sugar, it still contributes to added sugar intake, which can have negative health impacts when consumed in excess. The product's processing level limits its score, as it lacks nutritional benefits beyond being a sweetener.
