- Natural Flavors (Monosodium Glutamate, Flavor Enhancers (Disodium Inosinate, Disodium Guanylate)): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Guar Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Within Cooking Sauces, this product is more processed than about 83% of the 9,519 products we've analyzed.
