Classified as ultra-processed because it contains several industrial additives and formulations, including natural flavourings, emulsifier (sunflower lecithin), stabiliser (gellan gum), and refined sunflower oil combined with isolated pea protein. These ingredients go beyond basic culinary processing and fit NOVA’s definition of ultra-processed products.
The NOVA system classifies foods into four groups based on how much industrial processing they've undergone. This product falls into Group 4 — ultra-processed food products containing industrial additives such as emulsifiers, flavour enhancers, or hydrogenated oils.
