What You Should Know

You’d spot this bottle in the condiment aisle or on the table at a wings night — a go-to for adding vinegary heat to eggs, sandwiches, and snacks. It gives a nostalgic, practical kick rather than indulgent richness, signaling simple, savory flavor. The short ingredient list and acidic vinegar base suggest traditional processing (aging/blending) for stability and texture, indicating a processed product rather than an ultra‑processed one.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

Made from whole ingredients (aged cayenne peppers, vinegar, salt, water, garlic powder) with basic preservation/processing (aging, acidification), so it fits NOVA category 3 as a processed condiment rather than an ultra-processed formulation with industrial additives.
