Ultra-processed food: what is really in it
Processing and additives: Wingstop Plain Sweet Potato Fries
Wingstop Plain Sweet Potato Fries is assembled from 2 separately manufactured components, combined and cooked at the point of sale. Reading the ingredient list closely, it contains colours, modified starches, raising agents, stabilisers and thickeners. These are not there to add nutritional value. They make industrial production and distribution possible.
Colours
Restore or standardise appearance after processing. Found in the sweet potato fries.
Modified starches
Thicken and hold water in a way unmodified flour cannot. Found in the sweet potato fries.
Raising agents
Make doughs and batters rise without a long ferment. Found in the sweet potato fries.
Stabilisers
Stop mixtures separating and hold texture during storage and transport. Found in the sweet potato fries.
Thickeners
Give sauces and syrups the body they would otherwise lack. Found in the sweet potato fries.
Boone classifies Wingstop Plain Sweet Potato Fries as NOVA group 4, ultra-processed, based on the additives 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.

Boone counts every distinct named ingredient on Wingstop'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 (xanthan gum)” counts xanthan 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. Every figure here is a minimum.
