Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor [Contains Natural Smoke Flavor]): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Flavor Enhancers (Disodium Inosinate, Disodium Inosinate And Disodium Guanylate): Industrial flavor enhancement common in UPF.

Within Frozen Appetizers, this product is more processed than about 39% of the 4,714 products we've analyzed.
