Barcode 5010092798414
Ultra-Processed Food (UPF)

Yes — Oat &Quinoa is ultra-processed.

The product is classified as ultra-processed because it contains industrial ingredients/additives beyond basic culinary components. Specifically: sustainable palm oil (highly refined industrial oil), wheat protein (isolated protein ingredient), and vitamin premix (added nutrient mix).
