Yes — Really Nutty Granola is ultra-processed.
The product is classified as ultra-processed because it contains at least one NOVA UPF ingredient: flavouring. Flavourings are industrial additives used to modify taste and are characteristic of ultra-processed foods. Other ingredients such as oat flakes, sugar, nuts, rapeseed oil, honey, and sunflower seeds are not UPF by themselves, but the presence of flavouring is sufficient to classify the overall product as UPF.

Yes — Really Nutty Granola by Specially Selected is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). The product is classified as ultra-processed because it contains at least one NOVA UPF ingredient: flavouring. Flavourings are industrial additives used to modify taste and are characteristic of ultra-processed foods. Other ingredients such as oat flakes, sugar, nuts, rapeseed oil, honey, and sunflower seeds are not UPF by themselves, but the presence of flavouring is sufficient to classify the overall product as UPF.
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.
