Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Hot Sriracha Chili Sauce scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Chemical Preservatives (Less Than 2%: Potassium Sorbate And Sodium Benzoate And Sodium Bisulfite): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Xanthan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Within Cooking Sauces, this product is more processed than about 45% of the 9,519 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
