Why Does This Score Processed?
In our analysis, Chicken Spread, Chicken scores Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Processed Meats (Mechanically Separated Chicken): Mechanically separated and reformed meats are UPF markers.
- Processed Dairy Ingredients (Sodium Caseinate (Milk)): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Monosodium Glutamate): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Canned Meat, this product is more processed than about 15% of the 755 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
