Yes — Nut and Oat Cereal is ultra-processed.
A nutritious-looking cereal, but industrial flavoring ingredients make it UPF.
This is a nut-and-oat cereal containing wholegrain oats, rice flour, almonds, and other nuts. It is classified as ultra-processed because it contains barley malt extract, an industrially processed extract used as a flavor enhancer, and flavouring, an extracted additive. These ingredients are UPF markers under the NOVA classification. The added vitamins and minerals, sugar, honey, sunflower oil, salt, and baking-style ingredients do not independently make it ultra-processed.

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.
