Yes — Grissini is ultra-processed.

The ingredient list is valid. The product is ultra-processed because it contains several industrial additives and refined ingredients, including: modified corn starch (modifizierte maisstärke), glucose-fructose syrup (glucose-fructose sirup), emulsifiers such as mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids and mono- and diacetyl tartaric acid esters of mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids, sunflower lecithin, the thickener hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, and added natural flavour (natürliches aroma). These are all markers of ultra-processed foods under the NOVA classification.

What does "ultra-processed" (UPF) mean?

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.
