Yes — grenode salted peanut Protein Bar is ultra-processed.
The bar contains multiple ultra-processed ingredients/additives according to NOVA, including: maltitol and sucralose (artificial sweeteners), soy lecithin (emulsifier), isomalto-oligosaccharide (industrial sweetener/fibre), palm fat (highly processed refined oil), flavourings/arômes (industrial flavourings), and hydrolysed gelatine. Any one of these is sufficient to classify the product as ultra-processed; together they clearly make it a UPF.

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.
