Yes — Breakfast Biscuits Golden Oats 5 Packs is ultra-processed.
Not a great choice for everyday.
Breakfast Golden Oat is ultra-processed because it contains invert sugar syrup, barley malt extract, and emulsifier (soya lecithins). Invert sugar syrup is an industrially processed sugar syrup; barley malt extract is an industrially processed extract used as a flavor enhancer; and soya lecithins are an extracted emulsifier. These industrial ingredients and additives meet the criteria for ultra-processing. The cereals, sugars, rapeseed oil, minerals, raising agents, salt, and skimmed milk powder do not independently determine the classification.

Yes — Breakfast Biscuits Golden Oats 5 Packs by Belvita is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). Breakfast Golden Oat is ultra-processed because it contains invert sugar syrup, barley malt extract, and emulsifier (soya lecithins). Invert sugar syrup is an industrially processed sugar syrup; barley malt extract is an industrially processed extract used as a flavor enhancer; and soya lecithins are an extracted emulsifier. These industrial ingredients and additives meet the criteria for ultra-processing. The cereals, sugars, rapeseed oil, minerals, raising agents, salt, and skimmed milk powder 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.
