<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Here is a summary of replies I received. Most people agree that the wording on labels should be more defined. Add to modified starch: artificial flavouring, natural flavouring,flavouring,hydrolized plant protein,spices,carmel colour, ad nausium. I know from talking to some manufacturers that they do sometimes use rice or corn malt but when it isnt identified on the label, I have to skip something my kids might have. Wish they could be more specific. Wish we had something similar in the U.S.A. (A food list) Best wishes pat
