Yes — Cashew not & cranberry nut roast is ultra-processed.
This product is classified as ultra-processed (UPF) because it contains industrial additives and ingredients characteristic of NOVA group 4, specifically: dextrose (an isolated refined sugar) in the gluten free breadcrumbs, caramel colour (E150a), and vegetable fibre used as a processing aid/additive. These extracted and refined ingredients go beyond basic culinary processing.
Other meat alternatives Nomi has checked — these ones aren't ultra-processed.
