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:

  • Modified Proteins (Textured Vegetable Protein (Soy Protein Concentrate, Caramel Color, Zinc Oxide, Niacinamide, Ferrous Sulfate, Copper Gluconate, Vitamin A Palmitate, Calcium Pantothenate, Thiamine Mononitrate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, Riboflavin, Cyanocobalamin)): Extensive modification indicates UPF.
  • Industrial Enzymes (Enzymes): Industrial enzyme use indicates significant processing.
  • Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin (Non-Sticking Agent)): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.

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

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