Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Fat Free Pasteurized Sour Cream scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Artificial Colors (Artificial Color**): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Processed Meats (Gelatin): Mechanically separated and reformed meats are UPF markers.
- Chemical Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Processed Dairy Ingredients (Whey Protein Concentrate): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
- Other Additives (Sodium Hexametaphosphate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
Within Cream & Butter, this product is more processed than about 86% 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.
