Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Miso Ramen scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Stabilizers & Gums (Guar Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Monosodium Glutamate): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Flavor Enhancers (Disodium Guanylate, Disodium Inosinate, Disodium Succinate): Industrial flavor enhancement common in UPF.
Within Pasta & Noodles, this product is more processed than about 90% of the 9,228 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
