What You Should Know

You'd find this 6 oz bean and rice burrito in the frozen or prepared-foods section at Whole Foods — a grab-and-go option for a quick lunch, late-night snack, or road-trip meal. It feels comforting and practical with a mildly 'healthy' halo from beans and brown rice, but the uniform texture and shelf-stable formulation (enriched flour tortilla, emulsifiers, chemical leaveners and added oils) point to industrial processing typical of ultraprocessed items.
