Yes — BANANA LUNCHBOX LOAF by soreen is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). The product is classified as UPF because it contains several ultra-processed ingredients and additives, including dextrose (pre-identified UPF), fructose-glucose syrup, palm fat/oil, flavourings/natural flavouring, humectant (glycerol), gelling agent (pectin), malic acid, colour (lutein), and preservative (calcium propionate). These are industrial formulations or additives characteristic of ultra-processed foods under 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.
