Potstickers

Why Does This Score Highly Processed?

In our analysis, Potstickers scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

• Natural Flavors (Flavor Enhancer (Glycine, Dl-Alanine, Disodium Succinate, Salt, Sodium 5-Inosinate, Sodium 5-Guanylate)): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
• Other Additives (Sodium Polyphosphate (Sodium Polyphosphate, Potassium Metaphosphate, Sodium Pyrophosphate [Anhydrous], Sodium Phosphate Monobasic [Anhydrous])): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.

Within Frozen Appetizers, this is among the less processed 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.
