  • Artificial Colors (Red 3, Fd&C Blue 1, Fd&C Blue 1 Lake): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (Glucose): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Modified Starches (Modified Potato Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Sprinkles [Sugar, Rice Flour, Modified Corn Starch, Corn Starch, Palm Kernel And/Or Palm Oil, Contains 2% Or Less Of: Confectioner'S Glaze, Gum Arabic, Cellulose Gum, Carrageenan, Soybean Lecithin, Color (Titanium Dioxide, Fd&C Red 40, Fd&C Yellow 6, Fd&C Blue 1, Fd&C Blue 2 Lake), Artificial Flavor, Polysorbate 60], Guar Gum, Xanthan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
