Ingredient Decoder

High Risk Additives

Mono- and Diglycerides

Emulsifiers that can contain small amounts of trans fats, but loophole laws allow foods containing them to be labeled '0g Trans Fat'.

Moderate Caution

Soybean Oil

A ubiquitous vegetable oil high in Omega-6 fatty acids. Excessive consumption of Omega-6s without balancing Omega-3s can promote systemic inflammation in the body.

Dextrose

A simple sugar chemically identical to glucose. It absorbs instantly into the bloodstream, causing rapid energy spikes and crashes. Often used as a filler.

Canola Oil

A highly processed industrial oil extracted using hexane solvents, bleached, and deodorized. High in Omega-6s which can promote inflammation if not balanced with Omega-3s.

Sunflower Oil

Often perceived as healthy, but high-oleic versions are better. Standard sunflower oil is very high in inflammatory Omega-6s.

Full Ingredients List:

chicken breast, water, yeast extract, salt, corn starch, onion powder, garlic powder, natural flavor, breading with: yellow corn flour, wheat flour, water, tapioca starch, potatoes (potatoes, mono and diglycerides), milled rice, soybean oil, sunflower oil, spices, salt, sea salt, sugar, dextrose, garlic powder, onion powder, yeast, leavening (sodium acid pyrophosphate, sodium bicarbonate), rosemary, natural flavor, black pepper, breading set in non-hydrogenated soybean and/or canola oil
