Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavors): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
Within Prepared Entrees, this product is more processed than about 53% of the 6,999 products we've analyzed.
