Yes — Chocolate Orange Oat Biscuits is ultra-processed.
A tasty treat, but best enjoyed occasionally rather than every day.
This product is ultra-processed because it contains several industrial formulations or additives: sustainable palm fruit oil, a highly refined oil; partially inverted refiners syrup and Lyle's golden syrup, industrially processed syrups; soya lecithin, an emulsifier; and natural orange flavouring and natural vanilla flavouring, which are added flavourings. These ingredients go beyond simple culinary processing. Sugar, oats, cocoa ingredients, tapioca starch, sodium bicarbonate, and salt do not independently determine the classification.
Other crisps, snacks & nuts Nomi has checked — these ones aren't ultra-processed.

Yes — Chocolate Orange Oat Biscuits by Nairn's is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). This product is ultra-processed because it contains several industrial formulations or additives: sustainable palm fruit oil, a highly refined oil; partially inverted refiners syrup and Lyle's golden syrup, industrially processed syrups; soya lecithin, an emulsifier; and natural orange flavouring and natural vanilla flavouring, which are added flavourings. These ingredients go beyond simple culinary processing. Sugar, oats, cocoa ingredients, tapioca starch, sodium bicarbonate, and salt 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.
