Tender Crevers

Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

• Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
• Processed Dairy Ingredients (Soy Protein Concentrate): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
• Other Additives (Sodium Phosphates, Cracker Meal (Wheat Flour, Leavening {Sodium Aluminum Phosphate, Sodium Bicarbonate})): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
• Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor (Gum Arabic, Spice Extractive)): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

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.
