Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Burrito Beef Bean scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Proteins (Textured Vegetable Protein (Soy Flour)): Extensive modification indicates UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Flavoring (Yeast Extract, Salt)): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Other Additives (Dough Conditioner (Mono- And Diglycerides, Corn Starch, Wheat Flour, Guar Gum And 2% Or Less Of Each Of The Following: Soybean Oil, Silicon Dioxide [Flow Aid], Enzymes [Wheat], Salt)): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Guar Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Within Frozen Dinners, this product is more processed than about 37% of the 5,358 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
