No — Bagel Thins is not ultra-processed.
A simple bagel made with mostly basic culinary ingredients.
NYC Deli Style Original Bagel Thins are made mainly from fortified wheat flour, sugar, yeast, salt, and rapeseed oil. These are basic culinary ingredients. Calcium propionate is a preservative and ascorbic acid is a flour treatment agent, but they are basic permitted food additives rather than industrial formulations that make the product ultra-processed under the specified criteria. The product is therefore not classified as ultra-processed.

NYC Deli Style Original Bagel Thins are made mainly from fortified wheat flour, sugar, yeast, salt, and rapeseed oil. These are basic culinary ingredients.

The product is therefore not classified as 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.
