Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, White Salsa 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.
Artificial Colors (Artificial Color (Titanium Dioxide)): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Stabilizers & Gums (Sodium Alginate, Xanthan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Emulsifiers (Datem): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.

Within Dips & Salsa, this product is more processed than about 83% of the 6,665 products we've analyzed.

Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
