Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Chinese-Style Mustard scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

Chemical Preservatives (Sodium Benzoate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
Stabilizers & Gums (Xanthan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Natural Flavors (Artificial And Natural Flavors): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Ketchup & Mustard, this product is more processed than about 77% of the 6,563 products we've analyzed.

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