- Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Processed Meats (Gelatin): Mechanically separated and reformed meats are UPF markers.
- Artificial Flavors (Of: Natural And Artificial Flavor): Synthetic flavors indicate industrial food production.
- Artificial Colors (Blue 1): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
