Yes — Buttermilk Pancakes is ultra-processed.
Not ideal for everyday eating because of industrial syrups and additives.
This appears to be a buttermilk pancake product. It is classified as ultra-processed because it contains invert sugar syrup, a pre-identified UPF ingredient and an industrially processed syrup. It also contains E450, a synthesized raising agent, and sorbic acid, an isolated preservative additive. The fortified wheat flour, sugar, egg, rapeseed oil, salt, and vitamins and minerals do not by themselves make it UPF.
