Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup Solids): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
Chemical Preservatives (Sodium Nitrite): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
Industrial Enzymes (Enzymes): Industrial enzyme use indicates significant processing.
Natural Flavors (Grill Flavor (Partially Hydrogenated Soybean/Cottonseed Oil), Smoke Flavoring): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Frozen Burgers & Patties, this product is more processed than about 84% of the 1,281 products we've analyzed.

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