- Other Additives (Green Chilies (Salt, Citric Acid, Calcium Chloride), Sodium Bicarbonate, Sodium Aluminum Sulfate, Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate, Monocalcium Phosphate, Sodium Aluminum Phosphate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Guar Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Within Frozen Dinners, this product is more processed than about 37% of the 5,358 products we've analyzed.
