Dextrose - Added sugar that is most often derived from GMO corn. It's a cheap food additive commonly used to sweeten, texturize, and extend shelf life.
Sodium aluminum phosphate - Used in the breading of processed foods, and causes some people concern over aluminum's links to Alzheimer's disease. But the link hasn't been conclusively proven, and most of us regularly consume aluminum from other sources.
Natural flavors - Condensed extractions that often contain man-made chemicals and preservatives known as "incidental additives" that aren't required to be included on the label. With natural flavors, a food distributor can ensure that products distributed to a mass market are uniform in flavor.
Sodium aluminum phosphate, sodium acid phosphate, and monocalcium phosphate - Sources of inorganic phosphorous that are commonly found in processed foods. Inorganic phosphorous has been linked in scientific studies to cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, Type 2 diabetes, and obesity.
