Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Budae Jigae Noodle Soup scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

Modified Starches (Modified Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
Corn-Based Sweeteners (Glucose): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
Stabilizers & Gums (Guar Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Natural Flavors (Green Tea Extract Liquid Sauce: Glycin): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Flavor Enhancers (Disodium 5'-Ribonucleotide, Disodium Succinate): Industrial flavor enhancement common in UPF.

Within Soup & Chili, this product is more processed than about 64% of the 7,596 products we've analyzed.
