Ultra-processed food: what is really in it
Propercorn Sweet & Salty is made from one main component: popcorn.
A home-made equivalent, prepared in one kitchen from whole ingredients, would use a handful of recognisable components with no additives. These processing aids are used because the brief contact time during industrial frying or baking is insufficient to develop the complex, stable flavours the seasoning provides at scale.
Popcorn
Popcorn (52%), coconut oil, sugar, butter (milk), salt
Looking at the ingredient list tells a different story from just the headline numbers. The additives and processing aids give this product its consistent flavour at industrial scale.
Processing (NOVA classification)
Propercorn Sweet & Salty falls into NOVA group 4, ultra-processed food. The NOVA classification system groups foods by the extent and purpose of the processing involved. Group 4 covers products formulated from substances derived from foods plus additives, with little or no whole food recognisable in the final product. This classification applies to almost all commercially produced flavoured crisps and snacks, regardless of whether they are marketed as baked, hand-cooked, natural or healthier.
