I didn't even really look at those ingredients. But: OVER 2% of
sodium phosphate (more than the amount of salt) is tremendous for
any processed food product. I believe it's unheard of in any food
product in amounts greater than 2% - outside of Cheez Whiz, that is.

We could make it a food scavenger hunt: Find any food with greater
than 2% phosphates.
