Yes — Smug Oat & Dairy butter is ultra-processed.
Classified as ultra-processed because the ingredient list includes an isolated protein (fava bean protein) and added vitamins (A, D, E, B12) as industrial fortificants beyond basic culinary ingredients. These extracted/synthesized additives make it an industrial formulation under NOVA, even though the base ingredients (butter, rapeseed oil, oats) are minimally processed foods.
Other sauces, condiments & spreads Nomi has checked — these ones aren't ultra-processed.

Yes — Smug Oat & Dairy butter by Smug is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). Classified as ultra-processed because the ingredient list includes an isolated protein (fava bean protein) and added vitamins (A, D, E, B12) as industrial fortificants beyond basic culinary ingredients. These extracted/synthesized additives make it an industrial formulation under NOVA, even though the base ingredients (butter, rapeseed oil, oats) are minimally processed foods.
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.
