Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

Modified Fats (Hydrogenated Soybean Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
Natural Flavors (Monosodium Glutamate): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Plant Proteins (Hydrolyzed Soy Protein): Isolated proteins require extensive industrial processing.

Within Rice & Grains, this product is more processed than about 99% of the 3,539 products we've analyzed.

Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
