No — Sesame & Linseed Wholegrain Flat Bread by Marks & Spencer is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The ingredients are basic culinary ingredients (wholewheat flour, seeds, rapeseed oil, yeast, bran, malted barley, salt) plus ascorbic acid as a flour treatment agent, which is a common processing aid and not an industrial ultra-processing marker per the given rules. No industrial sweeteners, flavorings, emulsifiers, or refined industrial syrups are present.
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.
