Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Ketchup Sauce scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Starches (Modified Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Other Additives (Thickeners (Carrageenan, Corn Starch, Xanthan Gum, Guar Gum, Locust Bean Gum, Dextrin)): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
Within Ketchup & Mustard, this product is more processed than about 77% of the 6,563 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
