  • Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
  • Chemical Preservatives (Sodium Nitrite): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
  • Other Additives (Sodium Diacetate, Sodium Erythorbate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
  • Natural Flavors (Natural Flavoring. Coated With Salt, Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Deli Meats, this product is more processed than about 93% of the 4,591 products we've analyzed.

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