Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Breaded Scallops scores Highly 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.
- Flavor Enhancers (Disodium Inosinate And Disodium Guanylate): Industrial flavor enhancement common in UPF.
- Other Additives (Sodium Tripolyphosphate (To Retain Moisture)): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
