Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Angus Beef Chili with Beans scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Starches (Modified Cornstarch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Other Additives (Green Chile Puree (Contains Citric Acid)): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
- Natural Flavors (Flavoring, Chili Flavor (Oleoresin Of Paprika, Natural Flavorings)): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Soup & Chili, this product is more processed than about 64% of the 7,596 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
