No — Seeded Sliced Sourdough is not ultra-processed.
Great choice! Made with simple, traditional bread ingredients.
This sourdough bread is made from basic ingredients: wheat flour, water, sunflower seeds, spelt, salt, malted wheat flour, and dried fermented wheat flour. These are traditional bread-making ingredients without ultra-processed additives, industrial flavourings, emulsifiers, or refined syrup ingredients. Malted wheat flour and dried fermented wheat flour are minimally processed grain-based ingredients used in baking and do not make the bread ultra-processed.

No — Seeded Sliced Sourdough by Marks & Spencer is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). This sourdough bread is made from basic ingredients: wheat flour, water, sunflower seeds, spelt, salt, malted wheat flour, and dried fermented wheat flour. These are traditional bread-making ingredients without ultra-processed additives, industrial flavourings, emulsifiers, or refined syrup ingredients. Malted wheat flour and dried fermented wheat flour are minimally processed grain-based ingredients used in baking and do not make the bread ultra-processed.
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.
