Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup, Dextrin): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Dough Conditioners (Azodicarbonamide): Industrial bread additives not used in home baking.
  • Modified Proteins (Textured Vegetable Protein (Soy Flour, Caramel Color)): Extensive modification indicates UPF.
  • Other Additives (Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Guar Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.

Within Frozen Burgers & Patties, this product is more processed than about 84% of the 1,281 products we've analyzed.

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