What we flagged

IngredientVerdictWhy
Canola Oil Not approved Bred from rapeseed; refined with hexane and high heat. Sometimes labeled "rapeseed oil".
Agave Nectar Caution Highly processed, very high in fructose (typically 70-90%).
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.
Xanthan Gum Caution Microbial fermentation product; well tolerated by most but can cause GI distress in sensitive individuals.
