This ready-to-eat, industrially formulated product contains processed components (enriched flour, chemical leavening agents, emulsifiers, prepared sauces and added oil/sugar) and is designed for uniform texture and shelf stability, which fits NOVA 4. The focus on convenience and formulated ingredients rather than whole intact foods supports the ultra-processed classification.
