Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

Modified Fats (Non -Hydrogenated Soybean Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
Modified Starches (Modified Food Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
Chemical Preservatives (Sodium Benzoate & Potassium Sorbate As Preservatives): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
Artificial Colors (Artificial Color (Titanium Dioxide)): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.

Within Dressings & Mayo, this product is more processed than about 71% of the 5,534 products we've analyzed.

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