Why Does This Score Highly Processed?

In our analysis, Roasted Garlic Parmesan Pasta Sauce scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

  • Industrial Enzymes (Parmesan Cheese Flavor Base (Granular And Parmesan Cheese [Milk, Cultures, Salt, Enzymes], Water, Salt, Lactic Acid, Citric Acid)Dehydrated Roasted Garlic): Industrial enzyme use indicates significant processing.
  • Natural Flavors (Natural Flavoring): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Cooking Sauces, this product is more processed than about 45% of the 9,519 products we've analyzed.

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