Yes — Granola bar chocolate chip is ultra-processed.

Not a great choice for everyday.

This granola bar is ultra-processed because it contains several industrial formulations and additives: soy lecithin, an emulsifier; corn syrup and fructose, industrially processed isolated sugars; invert sugar, an industrially processed syrup; dried malt extract, an industrially processed extract; and natural flavor, an extracted flavoring additive. These ingredients contribute to its classification as ultra-processed. The other ingredients, such as oats, sugar, canola oil, molasses, coconut, salt, sodium bicarbonate, vanilla extract, and ascorbic acid, do not independently determine the classification.
