Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Chicken Breast Nuggets scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Fats (Partially Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil (Soybean And Cottonseed)): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
- Processed Dairy Ingredients (Soy Protein Concentrate): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
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.
