Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Jalapeno & Pepper Jack Dip scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Starches (Modified Food Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Industrial Enzymes (Enzyme Modified Cheddar Cheese (Cheddar Cheese [Milk, Cultures, Salt, Enzymes], Cream, Natural Flavor, Salt, Mono And Diglycerides, Sodium Phosphate, Enzymes)): Industrial enzyme use indicates significant processing.
- Emulsifiers (Datem): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Sodium Alginate, Xanthan Gum, Acacia Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Flavoring): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
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.
