Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Homestyle Vegetable Beef Soup scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Starches (Tomatoes. Contains Less Than 2% Of: Modified Food Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Plant Proteins (Soy Protein (Hydrolyzed)): Isolated proteins require extensive industrial processing.
- Processed Fruit Products (Vegetable Juice Concentrates (Carrot, Celeriac, Red Beet, Lettuce, Spinach, Citric Acid, Natural Flavor)): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
- Natural Flavors (Flavoring, Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Soup & Chili, this product is more processed than about 64% of the 7,596 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
