Yes — peanut & choc chip is ultra-processed.
Classified as ultra-processed because it contains industrial additives and ingredients such as emulsifier (soya lecithin), vanilla flavouring, and chicory fibre, which are extracted/isolated ingredients used for texture, sweetness or flavour rather than as basic culinary ingredients.
Other breakfast cereals & bars Nomi has checked — these ones aren't ultra-processed.

Yes — peanut & choc chip by Marks & Spencer is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). Classified as ultra-processed because it contains industrial additives and ingredients such as emulsifier (soya lecithin), vanilla flavouring, and chicory fibre, which are extracted/isolated ingredients used for texture, sweetness or flavour rather than as basic culinary ingredients.
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.
