Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Restaurant Style Croutons scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Dough Conditioners (Calcium Peroxide, Azodicarbonamide): Industrial bread additives not used in home baking.
- Chemical Preservatives (Tbhq): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Natural Flavors (2% Or Less Of Natural Flavors (Milk, Soy)): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Industrial Enzymes (Enzymes): Industrial enzyme use indicates significant processing.
Within Bread, this product is more processed than about 48% of the 11,494 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
