Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Chunk White Chicken in Lemon Pepper Sauce scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Starches (Modified Food Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Other Additives (Sodium Phosphates): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor (Contains Milk), Natural Flavor (Contains Pork And Bacon Fat), Flavoring): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Xanthan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Within Canned Meat, this product is more processed than about 88% of the 755 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
