No — White baton is not ultra-processed.
This bread contains basic ingredients (wheat flour, water, salt, yeast, rapeseed oil) and a common flour treatment agent (ascorbic acid), all of which fit NOVA’s minimally processed/processed categories rather than ultra-processed. It has no industrial sweeteners, flavourings, emulsifiers, or other cosmetic additives, so it is not classified as ultra-processed.

No — White baton by Tesco is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). This bread contains basic ingredients (wheat flour, water, salt, yeast, rapeseed oil) and a common flour treatment agent (ascorbic acid), all of which fit NOVA’s minimally processed/processed categories rather than ultra-processed. It has no industrial sweeteners, flavourings, emulsifiers, or other cosmetic additives, so it is not classified as ultra-processed.
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.
