At a glance
Summary
This taco sauce contains beneficial ingredients like concentrated crushed tomatoes, roasted jalapeno peppers, and lime juice, which provide vitamins and antioxidants. However, it is classified as ultra-processed due to the presence of modified corn starch and citric acid, which limits its score. Despite having a clean label with only one additive, the processing level restricts its potential health rating.
