Why Does This Score Highly Processed?

In our analysis, "Darn Good" Chili Mix scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

  • Plant Proteins (Hydrolyzed Soy Protein): Isolated proteins require extensive industrial processing.
  • Natural Flavors (Natural Flavors, Disodium Inosinate And Disodium Guanylate (Flavor Enhancers)): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Seasonings & Spices, this product is more processed than about 68% of the 11,127 products we've analyzed.

Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
