- Modified Starches (2% Or Less Of Modified Cornstarch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Emulsifiers (Mono- & Diglycerides): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Carrageenan): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Flavors): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Frozen Dinners, this product is more processed than about 37% of the 5,358 products we've analyzed.
