Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Cheddar Potato Bake scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

Modified Starches (2% Or Less Of Modified Cornstarch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
Emulsifiers (Mono- & Diglycerides): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.

Within Frozen Sides, this product is more processed than about 76% of the 851 products we've analyzed.

Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
