Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Taquitos Steak scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Starches (Modified Food Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Other Additives (Diced Green Chile (Green Chile Peppers, Water, Citric Acid)): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
Within Frozen Appetizers, this is among the less processed 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.
