  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup, Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Guar Gum, Xanthan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
  • Natural Flavors (Natural Flavors): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Cooking Sauces, this product is more processed than about 83% of the 9,519 products we've analyzed.
