Common questions about White Bread

Is White Bread ultra-processed?

No — White Bread is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). Ingredients are basic bread components (wheat flour, water, yeast, salt, vinegar, rapeseed oil, wheat enzymes) without industrial additives, refined syrups, artificial sweeteners, flavourings, or emulsifiers, so this is not classified as ultra-processed under NOVA.

What does "ultra-processed" (UPF) mean?

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.
