Millville Peanut Butter & Jelly Puffs are a flavored cereal offering a combination of peanut butter and jelly flavors, made with corn flour, sugar, and whole grain oats, along with several added ingredients that contribute to its color, flavor, and texture.
The nutrition facts reveal a product with 160 calories, which is relatively low but considered high for a snack or cereal intended as part of a meal. The carbohydrates are substantial, largely from sugars and refined components like dextrose, while protein content is minimal. This balance suggests it may not provide sustained energy or nutritional benefit.
Given the presence of processed ingredients such as sugar, dextrose, monoglycerides, artificial colors (caramel color), and added flavors, this product falls under the ultra-processed food category. These elements indicate a focus on shelf life, aesthetics, and consumer appeal over nutritional value, aligning with common practices in highly processed foods.
As a result of its high sugar content and processed nature, this cereal may not be the healthiest choice. A better option could be whole grains or nuts for a more nutrient-dense snack.
