Korean BBQ Chicken Wrap

Barcode 5065024934880

Yes — Korean BBQ Chicken Wrap is ultra-processed.

Not a great choice for everyday, due to several industrial ingredients.

This chicken wrap is classified as ultra-processed because it contains palm oil, barley malt extract, and modified starch. Palm oil is a highly processed and refined oil; barley malt extract is an industrially processed extract used as a flavor enhancer; and modified starch is an extracted and industrially modified additive. These ingredients are industrial formulations or additives associated with ultra-processed foods. Other ingredients, such as glycerol, sugar, rapeseed oil, vinegar, spices, vegetables, and raising agents, do not independently determine the classification.
