Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Scallops scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup Solids): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Smoke Flavor And Other Natural Flavors): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Seafood, this product is more processed than about 80% of the 7,747 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
