- Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Emulsifiers (Mono And Diglycerides, Soy Lecithin. Freshness Preserved By Sodium Bisulfite): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Prepared Entrees, this product is more processed than about 53% of the 6,999 products we've analyzed.
