Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

Plant Proteins (Isolated Soy Protein): Isolated proteins require extensive industrial processing.
Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Stabilizers & Gums (Guar Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.

Within Frozen Appetizers, this product is more processed than about 39% of the 4,714 products we've analyzed.
