Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Lemon Curd scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Chemical Preservatives (Sodium Benzoate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Emulsifiers (*Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
Within Cheese, this product is more processed than about 78% 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.
