- Modified Starches (Modified Cornstarch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Dough Conditioners (L-Cysteine Hydrochloride): Industrial bread additives not used in home baking.
- Flavor Enhancers (Disodium Inosinate, Disodium Guanylate): Industrial flavor enhancement common in UPF.
- Plant Proteins (Isolated Soy Protein): Isolated proteins require extensive industrial processing.
