- Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Modified Fats (Fractionated Coconut Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Xanthan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
