Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Chicken Meatballs scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

Modified Starches (Modified Food Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
Processed Dairy Ingredients (Whey Protein): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
Stabilizers & Gums (Carrageenan): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.

Within Bacon, Sausage & Hot Dogs, this product is more processed than about 88% of the 6,852 products we've analyzed.

Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
