What we flagged

IngredientVerdictWhy

Corn Syrup Caution Refined glucose syrup from corn starch.
Milk Powder Caution Dehydrated milk; spray-drying can oxidize cholesterol.

Soy Lecithin Caution Hexane-extracted from soybeans unless labeled non-GMO/organic.
Brown Sugar Caution Refined sugar with molasses added back.
Caramel Color (generic) Caution Without a Class number, manufacturer-disclosed type is unknown; Class III/IV variants (most common in colas) contain 4-MeI, a California Prop 65 carcinogen.
