Yes — Seeded folded flatbreads is ultra-processed.
Classified as ultra-processed because the ingredient list includes calcium phosphates (a raising agent) and preservative E282 (calcium propionate), which are industrial additives characteristic of ultra-processed foods according to NOVA. Other ingredients (wheat flour, water, seeds, rapeseed oil, yeast, vinegar, malted wheat flakes, sodium bicarbonate, salt) are minimally processed, but the presence of these additives makes the overall product ultra-processed.

Yes — Seeded folded flatbreads by M&S Food is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). Classified as ultra-processed because the ingredient list includes calcium phosphates (a raising agent) and preservative E282 (calcium propionate), which are industrial additives characteristic of ultra-processed foods according to NOVA. Other ingredients (wheat flour, water, seeds, rapeseed oil, yeast, vinegar, malted wheat flakes, sodium bicarbonate, salt) are minimally processed, but the presence of these additives makes the overall product ultra-processed.
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.
