No — Choco hoops is not ultra-processed.
This cereal is made from gluten-free oat flour, corn flour, brown rice flour, date syrup, cocoa powder, and salt.

Date syrup and cocoa powder are traditional, simple ingredients rather than industrial formulations, so the product is not ultra-processed under NOVA.
