Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Cheeseburger Sliders scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup, Dextrin): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Dough Conditioners (Calcium Peroxide, Azodicarbonamide): Industrial bread additives not used in home baking.
- Modified Proteins (Textured Vegetable Protein (Soy Flour, Caramel Color)): Extensive modification indicates UPF.
- Modified Starches (Modified Food Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Other Additives (Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate, Distilled Mono-Glycerides): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
Within Frozen Appetizers, this product is more processed than about 39% of the 4,714 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
