Summary
This shredded chicken breast product is ultra-processed, which limits its potential health score. It contains modified food starch and sodium phosphates, both of which are highly processed additives that contribute to its processing level. While it provides a good source of protein, the presence of these additives and the overall processing level reduce its healthiness compared to less processed options.
