Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Chicken Strips scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
- Other Additives (Sodium Diacetate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor, Natural Smoke Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Frozen Appetizers, this product is more processed than about 39% of the 4,714 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
