  • Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Hoisin Sauce [Sugar, Water, Miso (Water, Soybeans, Rice, Salt), Plum Puree, Soy Sauce (Water, Wheat, Soybeans, Salt), Garlic, Caramel Color, Modified Food Starch, Fermented Wheat Protein, Vinegar, Salt, Spices, Xanthan Gum, Citric Acid], Xanthan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
  • Natural Flavors (Flavorings, Flavor (Sunflower Oil, Canola Oil, Natural Flavor, Natural Smoke Flavor)): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
