Yes — Wholemeal Sunflower & Spelt Loaf is ultra-processed.
The loaf is ultra-processed because it contains several industrial additives and processing aids, including emulsifiers (mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids; mono- and diacetyltartaric acid esters of mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids) and the preservative calcium propionate, which are characteristic of ultra-processed foods in the NOVA system.
Other breakfast cereals & bars Nomi has checked — these ones aren't ultra-processed.

Yes — Wholemeal Sunflower & Spelt Loaf by Morrisons is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). The loaf is ultra-processed because it contains several industrial additives and processing aids, including emulsifiers (mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids; mono- and diacetyltartaric acid esters of mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids) and the preservative calcium propionate, which are characteristic of ultra-processed foods in the NOVA system.
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.
