Yes — Exceptional Superseeded Sliced Loaf is ultra-processed.
This bread is ultra-processed because it contains several industrial ingredients and additives, notably palm fat, palm oil, malted barley flour (used as a processed flavor/enzyme ingredient), and a flour treatment agent (ascorbic acid). These go beyond basic culinary ingredients and indicate an industrially formulated product rather than a minimally processed bread.
Other breakfast cereals & bars Nomi has checked — these ones aren't ultra-processed.

Yes — Exceptional Superseeded Sliced Loaf by Asda is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). This bread is ultra-processed because it contains several industrial ingredients and additives, notably palm fat, palm oil, malted barley flour (used as a processed flavor/enzyme ingredient), and a flour treatment agent (ascorbic acid). These go beyond basic culinary ingredients and indicate an industrially formulated product rather than a minimally processed bread.
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.
