- Chemical Preservatives (Sodium Nitrite. Stuffed Into A Natural Hog Casing. Naturally Smoked): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavors): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Processed Dairy Ingredients (Soy Protein Concentrate): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
- Other Additives (Sodium Phosphates, Sodium Ascorbate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
