Yes — Farmhouse White Loaf is ultra-processed.
Not a great choice for everyday, due to industrially processed ingredients.
This bread is classified as ultra-processed because it contains palm oil, a highly processed and refined oil, and chicory fibre, an extracted and isolated fibre ingredient used in industrial formulation. The flour treatment agent is ascorbic acid, a basic processing aid that does not independently make the bread ultra-processed. Fortified wheat flour, yeast, rapeseed oil, salt, vinegar, and added vitamins and minerals are not independently UPF under the stated criteria.
Other breakfast cereals & bars Nomi has checked — these ones aren't ultra-processed.

Yes — Farmhouse White Loaf by Marks & Spencers is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). This bread is classified as ultra-processed because it contains palm oil, a highly processed and refined oil, and chicory fibre, an extracted and isolated fibre ingredient used in industrial formulation. The flour treatment agent is ascorbic acid, a basic processing aid that does not independently make the bread ultra-processed. Fortified wheat flour, yeast, rapeseed oil, salt, vinegar, and added vitamins and minerals are not independently UPF under the stated criteria.
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.
