Yes — Chocolate Crisp High-Protein Cereal is ultra-processed.
UPF: industrial flavourings and formulated protein components make it unsuitable for everyday eating.
This product is ultra-processed because it contains barley malt extract and flavouring, which are industrially processed flavour-enhancing ingredients. It also contains lecithins as an emulsifier in the dark chocolate; emulsifiers are industrial additives associated with ultra-processed formulations. The protein crisp is an industrially formulated component made from wheat protein and wheat flour. Sunflower oil and tocopherol-rich extract do not independently determine the classification.
Other breakfast cereals & bars Nomi has checked — these ones aren't ultra-processed.

Yes — Chocolate Crisp High-Protein Cereal by Sainsbury's is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). This product is ultra-processed because it contains barley malt extract and flavouring, which are industrially processed flavour-enhancing ingredients. It also contains lecithins as an emulsifier in the dark chocolate; emulsifiers are industrial additives associated with ultra-processed formulations. The protein crisp is an industrially formulated component made from wheat protein and wheat flour. Sunflower oil and tocopherol-rich extract do not independently determine the classification.
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.
