Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Soft Cream Cheese Spread, Herb & Garlic scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Chemical Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate (Maintains Freshness)): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Other Additives (Stabilizers (Guar, Locust Bean And Xanthan Gums)): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
Within Cheese, this product is more processed than about 78% of the 19,171 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
