Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Lasagna Hamburger Helper scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Artificial Colors (Yellows 5 & 6, Yellow Lakes 5 & 6, Red 40 Lake): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Gum Arabic): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Processed Dairy Ingredients (Whey Protein Concentrate): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
Within Crusts & Dough, this product is more processed than about 41% of the 2,350 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
