Why Does This Score Processed?
In our analysis, Original Meatballs scores Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Processed Meats (Mechanically Separated Chicken): Mechanically separated and reformed meats are UPF markers.
- Processed Dairy Ingredients (Soy Protein Concentrate): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Flavorings): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Other Additives (Sodium Phosphates): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
Within Bacon, Sausage & Hot Dogs, this is among the less processed of the 6,852 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
