Why Does This Score Highly Processed?

In our analysis, Chili Chunky Beef scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

Modified Proteins (Textured Vegetable Protein (Soy Flour, Caramel Color)): Extensive modification indicates UPF.
Modified Starches (Modified Cornstarch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
Other Additives (Green Chile Puree (Contains Citric Acid)): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
Natural Flavors (Flavoring): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Soup & Chili, this product is more processed than about 24% of the 7,596 products we've analyzed.

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