What You Should Know

You’d spot this in the refrigerated or frozen vegetarian section—an easy grab for weeknight dinners or a backyard burger night when you want a lighter option. It gives a wholesome, health-forward vibe: familiar “homemade” vegetable flavors in a convenient patty format. The ingredient list suggests modest processing to form and bind the patty (flours, seed binder, spice blend, added salt) rather than heavy use of industrial additives, so expect a cohesive, slightly dense texture rather than a meat-like restructured product.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

Made from whole vegetable ingredients with flours, a seed binder and added salt/spice blend and sold as a packaged patty—this indicates industrial processing to transform and preserve ingredients but without the extensive additives typical of ultra-processed products.
