Archer Farms Key Lime Pie is a sweet and tangy dessert made with a combination of sweetened condensed milk, whipped topping, graham meal, and artificial colors and flavors.
The nutrition facts reveal that this pie is high in sugars, providing 33 grams of sugar, which can contribute to tooth decay or affect blood sugar levels. It also contains 15.1 grams of fat, primarily saturated fats from palm oil and coconut oil, which may impact heart health. The presence of sodium bicarbonate and artificial color additives like annatto extract and turmeric further indicate that the product is processed.
Given its use of pre-made ingredients like sweetened condensed milk, graham meal with added sugars, and artificial additives, this pie is classified as highly processed. While it offers a taste experience, it lacks the nutritional benefits of minimally processed foods and is not ideal for those prioritizing health or reducing sugar intake.
For a healthier alternative, consider making homemade key lime pies using fresh limes and minimal sugar to minimize processed additives and reduce overall sugar consumption.
