Why Does This Score Highly Processed?

In our analysis, Baked Brownsugar Ham Steaks scores Highly 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.
  • Chemical Preservatives (Sodium Nitrite): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
  • Other Additives (Sodium Diacetate, Sodium Erythorbate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
  • Natural Flavors (Maple Type Flavor (Propylene Glycol And Natural Flavors), Flavoring): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Prepared Entrees, this product is more processed than about 25% of the 6,999 products we've analyzed.

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