Yes — Knackebrod Rag is ultra-processed.
The product contains emulsifier E471 (mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids), which is an industrial additive used to modify texture and extend shelf life. Presence of such emulsifiers classifies the product as ultra-processed according to NOVA, even though the base ingredients (rye flour, yeast, salt) are minimally processed.

Yes — Knackebrod Rag by Ikea is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). The product contains emulsifier E471 (mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids), which is an industrial additive used to modify texture and extend shelf life. Presence of such emulsifiers classifies the product as ultra-processed according to NOVA, even though the base ingredients (rye flour, yeast, salt) are minimally processed.
Nomi has reviewed similar products that are not ultra-processed, including The Original Crunchy Rye Breads by Ryvita, Sesame Crispbread with a naturally nutty flavour by Rivercote, Lidl, Crispbread by Schär. See the healthier alternatives above for details.
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.
