Summary

This product is a processed food with a moderate level of processing, which limits its score potential. While it contains a good amount of protein, the presence of sodium phosphate as a preservative is a concern due to potential health risks such as kidney damage and cardiovascular issues. The ingredient list is relatively short, but the use of modified food starch and rice starch further indicates processing.
