Yes — Plain Folded Flatbread is ultra-processed.
The product is ultra-processed because the ingredient list includes industrial additives and processing aids: preservative E282 (calcium propionate), raising agent E450 (diphosphates), and separated leavening system components like sodium bicarbonate and calcium phosphates. These additives and the formulated nature of the product place it in the NOVA ultra-processed foods category.
Other breads & wraps Nomi has checked — these ones aren't ultra-processed.

Yes — Plain Folded Flatbread by M&S is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). The product is ultra-processed because the ingredient list includes industrial additives and processing aids: preservative E282 (calcium propionate), raising agent E450 (diphosphates), and separated leavening system components like sodium bicarbonate and calcium phosphates. These additives and the formulated nature of the product place it in the NOVA ultra-processed foods category.
Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are industrial formulations made with ingredients and additives you wouldn't find in a home kitchen — such as emulsifiers, artificial flavourings, colourings and modified starches. The classification is based on the NOVA system used by researchers and dietitians worldwide.
