Yes — Protein Bites with Whole Oats is ultra-processed.
Ultra-processed; best enjoyed occasionally rather than as an everyday snack.
This product is ultra-processed because it contains several industrially processed ingredients and additives: golden syrup and liquid sugar are industrially processed syrups; palm fat and palm oil are highly refined fats; modified starch is an industrially modified thickener; soya lecithin is an emulsifier; natural flavouring is an industrial flavouring additive; and xanthan gum is a stabiliser. These ingredients place the product in the ultra-processed category, despite also containing oats, seeds, honey, and other less processed ingredients.
Other crisps, snacks & nuts Nomi has checked — these ones aren't ultra-processed.

Yes — Protein Bites with Whole Oats by Graze is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). This product is ultra-processed because it contains several industrially processed ingredients and additives: golden syrup and liquid sugar are industrially processed syrups; palm fat and palm oil are highly refined fats; modified starch is an industrially modified thickener; soya lecithin is an emulsifier; natural flavouring is an industrial flavouring additive; and xanthan gum is a stabiliser. These ingredients place the product in the ultra-processed category, despite also containing oats, seeds, honey, and other less processed ingredients.
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.
