What You Should Know

You'd spot this organic chicken stock in the soups/broths aisle or the refrigerated natural foods section — the kind of carton you grab when you want an easy savory base for soups, risottos, or gravy. It gives off a wholesome, comforting, practical vibe: familiar whole-food ingredients but ready-to-use convenience. The short ingredient list of chicken, vegetables, salt and a listed antioxidant reflects commercial processing and packaging (pasteurization/sterile packing) rather than a fresh homemade stock, pointing toward a processed product rather than a highly formulated ultra-processed item.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

Made from recognizable whole-food ingredients (chicken, vegetables, sea salt) with a natural antioxidant and industrial processing/packaging for shelf stability, which is characteristic of processed foods (NOVA 3) rather than ultra-processed formulations.
