Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Pepperoni & Cheese Bites scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

Modified Fats (Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil (Contains Soybean, Palm, And/Or Cottonseed Oil)): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
Modified Starches (Modified Food Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
Stabilizers & Gums (Cellulose Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Natural Flavors (Flavoring): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Pizza, this product is more processed than about 24% of the 4,362 products we've analyzed.

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