• Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
• Plant Proteins (Soy Protein Nuggets (Soy Protein Isolate, Rice Flour, Tapioca Starch, Malt Extract, Salt)): Isolated proteins require extensive industrial processing.
• Processed Dairy Ingredients (Soy Protein Isolate): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
• Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
