Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Chicken Pho Noodles scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Processed Meats (Gelatin): Mechanically separated and reformed meats are UPF markers.
- Flavor Enhancers (Disodium Inosinate And Disodium Guanylate): Industrial flavor enhancement common in UPF.
- Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin): 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.
