Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Loaded Casserole scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Fats (Partially Hydrogenated Soybean Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
- Artificial Colors (Color (Artificial Color, Yellow Lakes 5 & 6)): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor, Natural Smoke Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Emulsifiers (Mono And Diglycerides): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
Within Boxed Dinners & Sides, this product is more processed than about 53% of the 4,145 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
