Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Gardein, Breakfast Patties scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Processed Dairy Ingredients (Soy Protein Concentrate*, Soy Protein Isolate*): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavors (From Plant Sources)): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Plant Proteins (Pea Protein): Isolated proteins require extensive industrial processing.
Within Frozen Burgers & Patties, this product is more processed than about 52% 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.
