Ultra-processed food: what is really in it

Processing and additives: Starbucks US Berry Blondie

Reading the ingredient list closely, it contains corn syrups and industrial sugars, thickeners and gums, flavourings, preservatives, acidity regulators, phosphates and mineral salts, isolated fibres and glazing agents and humectants. These are not there to add nutritional value. They make industrial production and distribution possible.

Corn syrups and industrial sugars

Sweeten, brown and keep bakes soft more cheaply than sugar alone. Found in the pectin.

Thickeners and gums

Thicken and stabilise fillings, sauces and egg mixtures so they hold up through freezing, storage and reheating. Found in the pectin.

Flavourings

Add or restore taste lost during processing. Found in the white chocolate drops, browned butter paste and pure vanilla extract with other natural flavors.

Preservatives

Slow the growth of bacteria, yeasts and moulds, or stop fats going stale, in centrally prepared food.

Acidity regulators

Control sourness and keep fillings, sauces and cured meats stable on the shelf.

Phosphates and mineral salts

Raise industrial doughs, hold water in processed meat and egg, and firm textures. Found in the baking powder.

Isolated fibres

Fibres extracted industrially to add bulk or raise the fibre count on the label. Found in the fiber.

Glazing agents and humectants

Give a shine or coating and stop food drying out.

Boone counts every distinct named ingredient on Starbucks’ published ingredient list, including sub-ingredients, and removes duplicates, so salt appearing in three components counts once. Raw covers whole foods and basic kitchen staples such as flour, milk, sugar, salt and oil. Manufactured covers substances that only exist as an output of industrial processing. Every figure here is a minimum.
