Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Campbell's Pasta Chicken Alfredo scores Ultra-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.
- Processed Dairy Ingredients (Soy Protein Concentrate): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Flavoring): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Crusts & Dough, this product is more processed than about 41% of the 2,350 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
