Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Original Chicken Breast Strips scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

  • Chemical Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
  • Natural Flavors (Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
  • Other Additives (Sodium Diacetate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Guar Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
  • Flavor Enhancers (Disodium Inosinate And Disodium Guanylate): Industrial flavor enhancement common in UPF.

Within Boxed Dinners & Sides, this product is more processed than about 53% 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.
