Yes — Honey and Nut Shredded Wheat is ultra-processed.
Not a great choice for everyday.
This product is classified as ultra-processed because it contains glucose syrup and natural flavourings. Glucose syrup is an industrially extracted refined sugar, while natural flavourings are extracted or formulated flavouring additives associated with ultra-processed foods. The other ingredients, including whole grain wheat, sugar, peanuts, coconut sugar, hazelnuts, honey, and molasses, do not independently make the product ultra-processed.
Other breakfast cereals & bars Nomi has checked — these ones aren't ultra-processed.

Yes — Honey and Nut Shredded Wheat by Nestlé is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). This product is classified as ultra-processed because it contains glucose syrup and natural flavourings. Glucose syrup is an industrially extracted refined sugar, while natural flavourings are extracted or formulated flavouring additives associated with ultra-processed foods. The other ingredients, including whole grain wheat, sugar, peanuts, coconut sugar, hazelnuts, honey, and molasses, do not independently make the product 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.
