Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Honey Chipotle Chicken scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Natural Flavors (Salsa Verde (Tomatillos, Poblano Pepper, Onion, Cilantro, Modified Corn Starch, Jalapeno Pepper, Sea Salt, Vinegar, Garlic, Autolyzed Yeast Extract, Lime Juice Concentrate, Spice, Xanthan Gum, Natural Flavor), Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Flavor Enhancers (Disodium Inosinate, Disodium Guanylate): Industrial flavor enhancement common in UPF.
Within Frozen Dinners, this product is more processed than about 37% of the 5,358 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
