In our analysis, Salsa & Cheese Dip scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
Chemical Preservatives (Sodium Benzoate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
Stabilizers & Gums (Xanthan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Emulsifiers (Mono And Diglycerides): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.

Within Cheese, this product is more processed than about 94% of the 19,171 products we've analyzed.
