Why Does This Score Highly Processed?

In our analysis, Chik'n Nuggets scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

Corn-Based Sweeteners (Potato Dextrin): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor From Non-Meat Sources (Contains Yeast, Salt, Onion)): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Plant-Based Proteins, this product is more processed than about 39% of the 990 products we've analyzed.

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