Ultra-processed food: what is really in it

Processing and additives: Subway US B.M.T. Protein Bowl

Subway US B.M.T. Protein Bowl is built from 11 components, combined and served at the point of sale. Reading the ingredient list closely, it contains corn syrups and invert sugar, dextrose, modified starches, flavourings, colours, preservatives and emulsifying and buffering salts. These are not there to add nutritional value. They make industrial production and distribution possible.

Sweeten and control texture more cheaply than sugar alone. Found in the Pepperoni and Genoa salami.

Dextrose

A simple sugar used for browning, bulk and mild sweetness. Found in the Pepperoni, Genoa salami and Black Forest ham.

Modified starches

Starches altered industrially to thicken, bind or hold texture through freezing and reheating. Found in the Black Forest ham.

Flavourings

Add or restore taste lost during processing. Found in the Pepperoni, Genoa salami and Black Forest ham.

Colours

Restore or standardise appearance after processing. Found in the Pepperoni.

Preservatives

Slow the growth of bacteria, yeasts and moulds in centrally prepared components, and keep cured meats pink. Found in the Pepperoni, Genoa salami and Black Forest ham.

Emulsifying and buffering salts

Let processed cheese melt smoothly, keep cured meats moist, or hold acidity steady. Found in the Black Forest ham.
