Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Pork Chili Verde scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Plant Proteins (Isolated Soy Protein): Isolated proteins require extensive industrial processing.
- Other Additives (Sodium Phosphates): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
Within Prepared Entrees, this product is more processed than about 53% of the 6,999 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
