Effectively all 6.7g counts as free sugar, or about 1.7 teaspoons against the daily limit. There is a small amount of naturally occurring sugar too, listed below, but it is not enough to change the figure.

Free (added) sugars come from

dextrose, glucose syrup in the pork sausage patty
sugar in the streaky bacon
dextrose in the potato rosti
molasses, sugar in the brown sauce

Naturally occurring sugars come from

lactose in the free range egg
lactose in the liquid vegetable and dairy fat blend (used to cook the egg)
lactose in the processed cheddar cheese slice

NHS daily free sugar limits: 30g for adults and children 11+, 24g age 7 to 10, 19g age 4 to 6. Sources are read from the published ingredient list for each component.

Ultra-processed food: what is really in it

Processing and additives: McDonald's Breakfast Wrap with Brown Sauce

McDonald's Breakfast Wrap with Brown Sauce is assembled from 8 separately manufactured components, combined and cooked at the point of sale. Reading the ingredient list closely, it contains anti-caking agents, antioxidants, colours, dextrose, emulsifiers, flavourings, glucose or glucose-fructose syrup, humectants, modified starches, preservatives, raising agents and stabilisers. These are not there to add nutritional value. They make industrial production and distribution possible.

Anti-caking agents

Stop powders and sliced products sticking together. Found in the processed cheddar cheese slice.

Antioxidants

Slow the natural oxidation of fats, so components keep their colour and flavour. Found in the liquid vegetable and dairy fat blend (used to cook the egg), streaky bacon.

Colours

Restore or standardise appearance after processing. Found in the processed cheddar cheese slice.

Dextrose

A simple sugar used for browning, bulk and mild sweetness. Found in the pork sausage patty, potato rosti.

Emulsifiers

Help oil-based and water-based ingredients blend and stay blended. Found in the tortilla, liquid vegetable and dairy fat blend (used to cook the egg), streaky bacon.

Flavourings

Add or restore taste lost during processing. Found in the liquid vegetable and dairy fat blend (used to cook the egg), streaky bacon, processed cheddar cheese slice.

Glucose or glucose-fructose syrup

Sweeten and control texture more cheaply than sugar alone. Found in the pork sausage patty.

Humectants

Hold moisture so a product stays soft. Found in the tortilla.

Modified starches

Thicken and hold water in a way unmodified flour cannot. Found in the brown sauce.

Preservatives

Slow the growth of bacteria, yeasts and moulds in centrally prepared components. Found in the streaky bacon, brown sauce.

Raising agents

Make doughs and batters rise without a long ferment. Found in the tortilla, potato rosti.

Stabilisers

Stop mixtures separating and hold texture during storage and transport. Found in the tortilla, potato rosti.

Boone counts every distinct named ingredient on McDonald’s published component lists, including sub-ingredients, and removes duplicates, so salt appearing in four components counts once. Additive class names are dropped and the named substance kept, so “stabiliser (guar gum)” counts guar gum once. 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. Where McDonald’s lists more than one approved supplier recipe only the primary one is counted, so every figure here is a minimum. The build uses a Sweet and Sour dip.
