Yes — Sesame Biscuits is ultra-processed.
Ultra-processed; best enjoyed occasionally rather than every day.
This appears to be sesame biscuits made primarily from wheat flour, with egg, sugar, rapeseed oil, sesame seeds, and dairy ingredients. It is classified as ultra-processed because it contains invert sugar, natural flavouring, milk protein, and emulsifier E471. These are industrially processed ingredients or additives associated with ultra-processed formulations. The product also contains margarine and malted rye flour, which further indicate industrial processing, although the listed pre-identified UPF ingredients are sufficient for the classification.
