Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

• Modified Starches (Modified Cornstarch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
• Stabilizers & Gums (Carrageenan): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.

Within Pasta & Noodles, this product is more processed than about 90% of the 9,228 products we've analyzed.
