Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Chicken Fried Rice scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

  • Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch, Modified Tapioca Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Diced Egg (Whole Eggs, Nonfat Milk, Modified Food Starch, Salt, Xanthan Gum, Citric Acid, Pepper). Sauce: Water, Xanthan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
  • Natural Flavors (Natural Flavors): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

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.
