Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Philly Cheesesteak Lean Stuffed Sandwiches scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Fats (Fully Hydrogenated Palm Kernel Oil With Soy Lecithin): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
- Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Other Additives (Dough Conditioners (Calcium Sulfate, Salt, L-Cysteine Hydrochloride, Deodorized Garlic Powder, Tricalcium Phosphate, Fungal Enzymes, Mono- And Diglycerides, Ethoxylated Mono- And Diglycerides)): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Modified Cellulose, Powdered Cellulose): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Within Frozen Appetizers, this product is more processed than about 39% of the 4,714 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
