Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Poppers scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Starches (Modified Food Starch, Modified Corn Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Mozzarella And Parmesan Cheese [Milk (Pasteurized Nonfat Milk, Cream, Cheese Culture, Salt, Xanthan Gum, Guar Gum, Carob Bean Gum)]): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Processed Dairy Ingredients (Sodium Caseinate): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Stabilizer (Sodium Caseinate, Corn Starch, Modified Cellulose Gum, Sodium Phosphate, Whey Protein Concentrate, Egg White Powder, Salt, Flavor, Xanthan Gum, Guar Gum), Monosodium Glutamate): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
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.
