Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Mozza-Melts scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Starches (Modified Potato Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavors): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Cheese, this product is more processed than about 78% of the 19,171 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
