Not an everyday choice, due to an industrially processed malt extract.
This product is ultra-processed because it contains barley malt extract (contains gluten), a pre-identified UPF ingredient. Barley malt extract is an industrially processed extract used as a flavor enhancer. The other listed ingredients, such as fortified wheat flour, muscovado sugar, flours, yeast, salt, and ascorbic acid, do not independently make the product UPF under the stated criteria.
