Why Does This Score Processed?
In our analysis, 2% Low Fat Small Curd Cottage Cheese scores Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Stabilizers & Gums (Locust Bean Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Industrial Enzymes (Enzymes): Industrial enzyme use indicates significant processing.
Within Cheese, this is among the less processed of the 19,171 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
This product is part of our wider analysis. It features in our Cottage Cheese vs Greek Yogurt comparison.
