Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Pierre Pretzel Cheese Burger scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

  • Dough Conditioners (L-Cysteine Hydrochloride, Azodicarbonamide (Ada), Calcium Peroxide): Industrial bread additives not used in home baking.
  • Modified Fats (Partially Hydrogenated Soybean And Cottonseed Oils): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
  • Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup Solids): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Other Additives (Monoglycerides, Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate (Ssl), Sodium Pyrophosphate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.

Within Frozen Dinners, this product is more processed than about 37% of the 5,358 products we've analyzed.

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