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. Whole fruit and lactose deductions are Boone estimates; Wetherspoon publishes total sugar only.

Ultra-processed food: what is really in it

Processing and additives: Wetherspoon American-Style Pancakes with Maple-Flavour Syrup

Wetherspoon American-Style Pancakes with Maple-Flavour Syrup is assembled from 2 separately listed components, combined and cooked in the pub kitchen. Reading the ingredient list closely, it contains acidity regulators, colours, flavourings, modified starches, preservatives and raising agents. These are not there to add nutritional value. They make industrial production and distribution possible.

Acidity regulators

Colours

Restore or standardise appearance after processing. Found in the maple flavour syrup.

Flavourings

Add or restore taste lost during processing. Found in the maple flavour syrup.

Modified starches

Thicken and hold water in a way unmodified flour cannot. Found in the maple flavour syrup.

Preservatives

Slow the growth of bacteria, yeasts and moulds in centrally prepared components. Found in the maple flavour syrup and pancakes.

Raising agents

Release gas to make doughs and batters rise. Found in the pancakes.

Boone classifies Wetherspoon American-Style Pancakes with Maple-Flavour Syrup as NOVA group 4, ultra-processed, based on the industrial ingredients named above. NOVA groups foods by how far they are from their whole-food form, not by how nutritious they are. A group 4 food is not automatically unhealthy, and a group 1 food is not automatically healthy. Read from the published ingredient list, retrieved 3 October 2026.

Boone counts every distinct named ingredient on Wetherspoon’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, and the vitamins and minerals added to fortified flour are not counted separately. 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 Wetherspoon lists more than one approved supplier recipe only the first is counted, so every figure here is a minimum.
