Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Tilapia scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Starches (Modified Food Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Modified Fats (Partially Hydrogenated Soybean And Cottonseed Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavors, Vanilla Extract, Natural Smoke Flavor, +1 more): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Seafood, this product is more processed than about 90% of the 7,747 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
