What You Should Know

You’d spot this in the refrigerated salad dressing or organic section when grabbing a quick, health-forward topping for salads, grain bowls, or sandwiches. It feels wholesome and trendy—a bright, tahini-sesame dressing marketed as a convenient, better-for-you option. The smooth, stable emulsion and the use of xanthan gum (an industrial thickener) hint at industrial processing and formulations designed for texture and shelf stability, common in ultra-processed dressings.
