How we scored it
The product contains soybean oil, which is a heavily processed ingredient, and sugar, both of which contribute to a lower health score. The presence of whole eggs and vinegar are positive, but the overall processing level and inclusion of additives like calcium disodium EDTA and natural flavors further impact the rating.
