Ultra-Processed Food (UPF)

Yes — CRUMPET THINS is ultra-processed.

Not ideal for everyday eating because it contains an industrial preservative.

Crumpet Thins are classified as ultra-processed because they contain calcium propionate, an industrial preservative additive. The raising agents (E450, E500, and E501) are basic leavening agents and do not independently make the product ultra-processed; fortified wheat flour, sugar, yeast, salt, and water are also not sufficient for a UPF classification.
