Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup, Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
Artificial Flavors (Flavors (Artificial, Natural)): Synthetic flavors indicate industrial food production.
Chemical Preservatives (Sodium Benzoate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.

Within Dips & Salsa, this product is more processed than about 83% of the 6,665 products we've analyzed.

Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
