Ultra-processed food: what is really in it
Processing and additives: Wingstop Ranch Dip
Wingstop Ranch Dip is assembled from 3 separately manufactured components, combined and cooked at the point of sale. Reading the ingredient list closely, it contains acidity regulators, antioxidants, colours, emulsifiers, flavourings, maltodextrin, modified starches, stabilisers and thickeners. These are not there to add nutritional value. They make industrial production and distribution possible.
Acidity regulators
Hold the ph steady so flavour and shelf life stay consistent. Found in the ranch dressing seasoning.
Antioxidants
Slow the natural oxidation of fats, so components keep their colour and flavour. Found in the ranch mayonnaise.
Colours
Restore or standardise appearance after processing. Found in the ranch mayonnaise.
Emulsifiers
Help oil-based and water-based ingredients blend and stay blended. Found in the ranch dressing seasoning.
Flavourings
Add or restore taste lost during processing. Found in the ranch mayonnaise and the ranch dressing seasoning.
Maltodextrin
Bulk out a product and carry flavour, with little taste of its own. Found in the ranch dressing seasoning.
Modified starches
Thicken and hold water in a way unmodified flour cannot. Found in the ranch mayonnaise.
Stabilisers
Stop mixtures separating and hold texture during storage and transport. Found in the ranch mayonnaise and the ranch dressing seasoning.
Thickeners
Give sauces and syrups the body they would otherwise lack. Found in the ranch mayonnaise.
Boone classifies Wingstop Ranch Dip 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. Read from the published ingredient list, 22 September 2026.
A portion of Wingstop Ranch Dip contains at least 23 distinct ingredients: 14 raw and 9 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.

The 14 raw ingredients
black pepper, buttermilk powder, dill, garlic powder, lemon juice, milk powder, onion powder, parsley, pasteurised egg and egg yolk, rapeseed oil, salt, spirit vinegar, sugar, water.

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.
