Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Au Jus Sauce Mix scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Proteins (Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein (Soy)): Extensive modification indicates UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Gum Arabic): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Flavor Enhancers (Disodium Inosinate, Disodium Guanylate): Industrial flavor enhancement common in UPF.
Within Seasonings & Spices, this product is more processed than about 68% of the 11,127 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
