Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Classic Chicken Soup with Meatballs scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup Solids): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
Plant Proteins (Isolated Soy Protein): Isolated proteins require extensive industrial processing.
Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Soup & Chili, this product is more processed than about 64% 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.
