Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Peanut Sauce & Coating Mix scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Starches (Modified Tapioca Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Modified Proteins (Hydrolyzed Soybean Protein): Extensive modification indicates UPF.
Within Cooking Sauces, this product is more processed than about 45% of the 9,519 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
