What You Should Know

You'd spot this 4.5 oz jar in the specialty condiments aisle or pulled out at a brunch or cheese-board moment — a small, jarred gourmet accent for entertaining. It reads artisanal and adventurous with smoky Hatch heat and a whisper of tequila, and the texture is a shelf-stable, spreadable gel thanks to cane sugar and fruit pectin. The short, recognizable ingredient list and simple processing point to a preserved/processed product rather than an industrially engineered ultra-processed food.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

Made from whole roasted chiles plus added cane sugar, vinegar and pectin to sweeten, preserve and thicken — typical of processed preserves (NOVA 3) rather than formulations with numerous industrial additives that define ultra-processed foods.
