Let $A$ be a commutative noetherian ring and $I$ an ideal in $A$. We characterize algebraically when all the minimal primes of the associated graded ring $G_I A$ contract to minimal primes of $A/I$. This, applied to intersection theory, means that there are no embedded distinguished varieties of intersection. The characterization is in terms of the analytic spread of certain localizations of $I$, the symbolic Rees algebra and the normalization of the Rees algebra, and extends results of Huneke, Vasconcelos and Mart\'{i}-Farr\'{e}.
