Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Stuffed Pepper scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

  • Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Cellulose Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
  • Industrial Enzymes (Enzyme Modified Cheese (Pasteurized Milk, Water, Milkfat, Sodium Phosphate, Cheese Culture, Salt, Enzymes, Vitamin A Palmitate)): Industrial enzyme use indicates significant processing.
  • Processed Dairy Ingredients (Milk Protein Concentrate): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
  • Other Additives (Sodium Hexametaphosphate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.

Within Frozen Appetizers, this product is more processed than about 39% of the 4,714 products we've analyzed.

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