Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Nutrient Dense Vegetarian Teff Macaroni & Cheese Superfood scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Plant Proteins (Pea Protein): Isolated proteins require extensive industrial processing.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Xanthan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Within Boxed Dinners & Sides, this product is more processed than about 25% of the 4,145 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
