Yes — Super Berry Oat Bars is ultra-processed.
The product is classified as ultra-processed (UPF) because the ingredient list includes industrially processed additives: beetroot and carrot extract and natural flavourings. These are extracted, isolated ingredients used mainly for colour and flavour rather than as whole foods, which fits NOVA’s definition of ultra-processed formulations. Even though most other ingredients are minimally processed (wholegrain oats, dates, olive oil, nuts, seeds, seaweed, berries), the presence of these UPF additives makes the overall product UPF.
Other crisps, snacks & nuts Nomi has checked — these ones aren't ultra-processed.

Yes — Super Berry Oat Bars by Bio & Me is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). The product is classified as ultra-processed (UPF) because the ingredient list includes industrially processed additives: beetroot and carrot extract and natural flavourings. These are extracted, isolated ingredients used mainly for colour and flavour rather than as whole foods, which fits NOVA’s definition of ultra-processed formulations. Even though most other ingredients are minimally processed (wholegrain oats, dates, olive oil, nuts, seeds, seaweed, berries), the presence of these UPF additives makes the overall product 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.
