Yes — 4 Large White Baps is ultra-processed.
The product is classified as ultra-processed (UPF) because it contains several industrial ingredients and additives. Specifically: palm oil (a highly refined, industrial oil), dextrose (an industrially refined sugar), and emulsifiers (mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids; mono- and diacetyl tartaric acid esters of mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids), which are typical UPF additives used to modify texture and shelf life. These go beyond basic culinary ingredients, so under NOVA this product is UPF.
Other drinks Nomi has checked — these ones aren't ultra-processed.

Yes — 4 Large White Baps by Co-op Bakery is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). The product is classified as ultra-processed (UPF) because it contains several industrial ingredients and additives. Specifically: palm oil (a highly refined, industrial oil), dextrose (an industrially refined sugar), and emulsifiers (mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids; mono- and diacetyl tartaric acid esters of mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids), which are typical UPF additives used to modify texture and shelf life. These go beyond basic culinary ingredients, so under NOVA this product is 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.
