Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Original Sauce, Original scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Chemical Preservatives (Sodium Benzoate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Xanthan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor (Contains Anchovy)): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Ketchup & Mustard, this product is more processed than about 42% of the 6,563 products we've analyzed.
