Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup, Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Modified Starches (Modified Food Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
  • Chemical Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate And Calcium Disodium Edta As Preservatives): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
  • Natural Flavors (Natural Smoke Flavor, Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Xanthan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.

Within Ketchup & Mustard, this product is more processed than about 77% of the 6,563 products we've analyzed.

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