    It's just me, but I try to not use anything with it in there (with exception of a few goodies on CN when I don't read labels. 😉 )  It is a thickener like in fat free yogurts and such.

    Probably depends on how it's modified. There several different methods (physically, enzymatically, or chemically), and apparently no way to tell which was used. ???http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modified_starch
