Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Manicotti scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Stabilizers & Gums (Gluten Free Pasta [Water, Gluten Free Flour Blend (Rice Flour, Corn Flour, Corn Starch, Modified Corn Starch, Tapioca Starch, Potato Starch, Xanthan Gum), Eggs, Canola Oil]): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Industrial Enzymes (Cheese Filling [Ricotta Cheese (Rbst Free Whey & Milk, Vinegar, Salt), Eggs, Parmesan Cheese (Rbst Free Part-Skim Milk, Cheese Cultures, Salt, Enzymes), Sea Salt, Black Pepper, Parsley], Mozzarella Cheese [Rbst Free Milk, Salt, Cheese Cultures, Enzymes]): Industrial enzyme use indicates significant processing.
