Scanned 18 times by Nomi users

Yes — High Protein Tortilla Wraps is ultra-processed.

The product is ultra-processed because it contains several industrial additives and UPF ingredients, including pea protein isolate, humectant (glycerol), raising agents: diphosphates, preservatives (potassium sorbate, calcium propionate), emulsifier (mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids), flour treatment agent (L-cysteine), and acidity regulator (citric acid). Diphosphates are pre-identified UPF ingredients and alone are sufficient to classify this product as UPF; the other additives further confirm this classification.
