Additive class names are dropped and the named substance kept, so “stabiliser (xanthan gum)” counts xanthan gum once. Vitamins and minerals added to flour by law are not counted. Raw covers whole foods and basic kitchen staples such as flour, sugar, salt and oil. Manufactured covers substances that only exist as an output of industrial processing.
