Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Progresso Beef Flavored Broth scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Processed Meats (Gelatin): Mechanically separated and reformed meats are UPF markers.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
