Why Does This Score Highly Processed?

In our analysis, Memphis Style Barbecue Sauce scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

  • Other Additives (Hot Sauce (Peppers, Distilled Vinegar, Salt, Xanthan Gum)): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
  • Natural Flavors (Natural Smoke Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Ketchup & Mustard, this product is more processed than about 42% of the 6,563 products we've analyzed.

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