Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Breaded Crunchy Tilapia Fillets 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 (Tbhq): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose, Guar Gum, Methlycellulose): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Monosodium Glutamate, Natural Flavoring): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Seafood, this product is more processed than about 90% of the 7,747 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
