Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Quinoa Veggie Burger scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Starches (Modified Food Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Processed Dairy Ingredients (Whey Protein): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
Within Frozen Burgers & Patties, this product is more processed than about 84% of the 1,281 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
