Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Garden Salad 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.
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (2% Or Less Of High Fructose Corn Syrup, Corn Syrup Solids): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Chemical Preservatives (Tbhq): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Xanthan Gum, Powdered Cellulose (To Prevent Caking), Guar Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Pickles & Relishes, this product is more processed than about 84% of the 10,255 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
