Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup, Corn Syrup Solids): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Dough Conditioners (Calcium Peroxide, L-Cysteine Hydrochloride): Industrial bread additives not used in home baking.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Guar Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
  • Emulsifiers (Mono- And Diglycerides, Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
  • Industrial Enzymes (Enzymes): Industrial enzyme use indicates significant processing.

Within Bread, this product is more processed than about 48% of the 11,494 products we've analyzed.

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