Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

  • Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch. Contains 2% Or Less: Salt): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Chemical Preservatives (Sodium Nitrite): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
  • Natural Flavors (Flavor, Monosodium Glutamate): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
  • Other Additives (Sodium Diacetate, Sodium Erythorbate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.

Within Bacon, Sausage & Hot Dogs, this product is more processed than about 88% of the 6,852 products we've analyzed.

Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
