Why Does This Score Processed?
In our analysis, Sharp & Nutty Parmesan Grated Cheese scores Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Chemical Preservatives (Natamycin (Natural Mold Inhibitor)): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Powdered Cellulose (To Prevent Caking)): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Within Cheese, this is among the less processed of the 19,171 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
