Yes — Oat so simple - golden syrup flavor by Quaker is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). The product is classified as ultra-processed because it contains 'natural flavourings', which are industrially produced additives used to modify taste. According to the NOVA system and the given rules, such flavourings make the product an ultra-processed food, even though the base ingredients like oats, sugar, and salt are not UPF themselves.
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.
