  • Modified Proteins (Textured Vegetable Protein (Soy Proteinconcentrate, Caramel Color)): Extensive modification indicates UPF.
  • Other Additives (Sodium Phosphates, Monoglycerides (With Ascorbic Acid [Antioxidant]And Citric Acid [Antioxidant]), Tetrasodiumpyrophosphate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
  • Industrial Enzymes (Enzymes): Industrial enzyme use indicates significant processing.
  • Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.

Within Beef, Pork & Lamb, this product is more processed than about 91% of the 4,915 products we've analyzed.
