  • Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
  • Other Additives (Medium Chain Triglycerides): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Xanthan Gum, Powdered Cellulose Added To Prevent Caking): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
  • Industrial Enzymes (Flavorings (Contains Milk).Grated Cheese Topping: A Blend Of Cheeses [Parmesan And Romano Made From Cow'S Milk (Cultured Pasteurized Part-Skim Milk, Salt, Enzymes)]): Industrial enzyme use indicates significant processing.
