Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Condensed Soup scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Starches (Of: Modified Corn Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Monosodium Glutamate, Flavor, Natural Smoke Flavor, +1 more): 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.
