Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Breaded Fish Squares 4oz scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Starches (Modified Cornstarch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Flavore Enhancer (Monosodium Glutamate)): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Xanthan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Within Seafood, this product is more processed than about 80% 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.
