Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Dairy-Free Sour Cream scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Stabilizers & Gums (Pectin, Gellan Gum, Organic Locust Bean Gum*, +2 more): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavors (Plant Sources)): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Cream & Butter, this product is more processed than about 69% of the 3,591 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
