**Product Description:**
A zesty ranch-style dressing that combines peppercorn, garlic, and onion flavors for a versatile condiment or dip.
**Nutrition Analysis:**
At 120 calories per serving, this dressing is relatively low in calories compared to other dressings but high in sodium (210mg). The presence of artificial flavor additives like monosodium glutamate and phosphoric acid raises concerns about potential health impacts, particularly for those monitoring sodium intake or sensitive to additive-related issues.
**Processing Assessment:**
This product falls under ultra-processed foods due to the inclusion of numerous synthetic additives such as modified food starch, natural (possibly synthetic) flavors, and preservatives like sorbic acid and calcium disodium EDTA. These ingredients indicate a high level of processing and manipulation beyond minimally handling raw materials.
** healthier Alternative:**
For a healthier alternative, consider making a homemade ranch-style dressing using olive oil, fresh herbs, garlic, and onions. This approach reduces reliance on artificial additives and sodium, offering a fresher and more nutritious option.
