Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Black Bean 5 Layer Dip 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.
  • Processed Meats (Gelatin (Beef)): Mechanically separated and reformed meats are UPF markers.
  • Chemical Preservatives (Sodium Benzoate And Potassium Sorbate (Maintains Freshness)): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
  • Other Additives (Sodium Tripolyphosphate, Gums (Xanthan, Guar, Carrageenan, Locust Bean)): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
  • Natural Flavors (Natural Flavors): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Dips & Salsa, this product is more processed than about 83% of the 6,665 products we've analyzed.

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