Ultra-Processed Food (UPF)

Yes — White & Wheat Wraps is ultra-processed.

This product is classified as ultra-processed (UPF) because it contains several industrial additives and formulations beyond basic culinary ingredients. In particular, it includes palm oil (a highly refined industrial oil), emulsifier (mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids), and preservatives (potassium sorbate, calcium propionate), all of which are characteristic of ultra-processed foods under the NOVA classification. Additional processing aids like humectant (glycerol), raising agents, acidity regulator, and flour treatment agent (L-cysteine) further indicate a high level of industrial processing.
