Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Tavern-Style Pizza scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Fats (Partially Hydrogenated Soybean And/Or Cottonseed Oils): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
- Chemical Preservatives (Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate, Bha, +2 more): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup Solids): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Industrial Enzymes (Enzymes. Sauce: Tomato Puree (Water, Tomato Paste)): Industrial enzyme use indicates significant processing.
- Natural Flavors (Flavorings. Sodium Phosphates, Flavoring): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Pizza, this product is more processed than about 24% of the 4,362 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
