Yes — Mixed Grain and Lentil Bowl is ultra-processed.
Not ideal for everyday eating because it contains several industrial additives.
This is a mixed grain and lentil bowl. It is classified as ultra-processed because it contains dextrose, onion extract, thyme extract, sage extract, and added colour, which are industrially processed additives or flavouring components under the NOVA approach. The product also includes vegetable extract, pepper extract, and potato starch, but the specifically identified UPF ingredients are sufficient for classification.
