Ultra-processed food: what is really in it
Processing and additives: Wetherspoon Coleslaw Jacket Potato
Wetherspoon Coleslaw Jacket Potato is assembled from 8 separately listed components, combined and cooked in the pub kitchen. Reading the ingredient list closely, it contains acidity regulators, colours, modified starches, preservatives and thickeners. These are not there to add nutritional value. They make industrial production and distribution possible.
Acidity regulators
Control acidity for taste, safety and shelf life. Found in the salad dressing.
Colours
Restore or standardise appearance after processing. Found in the salad dressing.
Modified starches
Thicken and hold water in a way unmodified flour cannot. Found in the salad dressing.
Preservatives
Slow the growth of bacteria, yeasts and moulds in centrally prepared components. Found in the salad dressing.
Thickeners
Give sauces and syrups the body they would otherwise lack. Found in the salad dressing and vegetarian coleslaw.
Boone classifies Wetherspoon Coleslaw Jacket Potato 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.
Wetherspoon Coleslaw Jacket Potato contains at least 31 distinct ingredients: 23 raw and 8 manufactured. Ordered with a dip and a dessert that reaches 66, of which 24 are manufactured. Raw means something you could buy and cook with at home; manufactured means a substance that only exists as an output of industrial processing.

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. The build uses a garlic and herb dip and a warm chocolate brownie with ice cream.
