Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

  • Modified Starches (Modified Potato Starch, Modified Tapioca Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup*): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Flavor Enhancers (Disodium Guanylate, Disodium Inosinate, Disodium Succinate): Industrial flavor enhancement common in UPF.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Gum Arabic): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
  • Plant Proteins (Hydrolyzed Soy Protein): Isolated proteins require extensive industrial processing.

Within Soup & Chili, this product is more processed than about 64% of the 7,596 products we've analyzed.

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