Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Buffalo Wing Rub scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Starches (Modified Food Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Other Additives (Sodium Diacetate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Xanthan Gum & Silicon Dioxide Added To Prevent Caking): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Within Seasonings & Spices, this product is more processed than about 68% of the 11,127 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
