Yes — Peanut Delight is ultra-processed.
The product is classified as ultra-processed (UPF) because it contains 'natural flavoring', which is an industrially produced additive used to modify taste. According to the NOVA guidelines and the given instructions, the presence of such flavourings is sufficient to classify a product as ultra-processed, even though the other ingredients (dates, peanuts, sea salt) are minimally processed.
