Vegetable Minestrone Soup, 16 OZ
What You Should Know
You’d spot this 16 oz Raos Vegetable Minestrone in the soup aisle or prepared foods section — an Italian‑style, homestyle minestrone that feels comforting and nostalgic. The ingredient list is dominated by recognizable vegetables and pantry staples, but items like enriched ditalini pasta, cornstarch and the very high sodium level point to industrial processing for consistent texture and shelf stability. Those cues suggest a processed product rather than a minimally processed whole‑food item.

Processed Food
Why this score?
Most ingredients are whole foods, but the product includes processed components (enriched pasta, cornstarch) and is manufactured for stability and consistency; there are no obvious industrial additives typical of NOVA 4, so it fits NOVA 3 (processed foods).
