What we flagged

Ingredient	Verdict	Why

Natural Flavors	Caution	Regulatory category permitting solvent extraction; composition not disclosed.
Modified Food Starch	Not approved	Industrially modified starch (chemical, enzymatic, or physical processing — label rarely specifies which). Common GMO source (corn/wheat/tapioca), and several modification agents (propylene oxide, sodium hydroxide) are flagged in EU regulatory reviews. Editorial position: not what we'd stock.
Soybean Oil	Not approved	Industrial seed oil, high in oxidation-prone linoleic acid; typically hexane-extracted.
Corn Oil	Not approved	Industrial seed oil; refined via heat and solvents from a low-oil source crop.
Soybeans	Caution	Typically GMO unless organic; estrogenic compounds in large amounts.
