What You Should Know

You'd likely find this on the organic/natural cereal shelf or in a pantry of someone who favors simple, whole-grain breakfasts — an easy grab for quick bowls at home or to tuck into a lunchbox. The vibe is wholesome and gently nostalgic: airy, neutral-flavored puffs that echo childhood cereals but with a health-forward twist. The single-ingredient list and puffed texture point to thermal/physical processing to create crunch without added emulsifiers or flavorings, signaling a processed whole-grain product rather than a heavily formulated ultra-processed food.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

Only whole-grain Kamut (Khorasan) wheat is listed; puffing is an industrial thermal/pressure process that changes texture but does not introduce industrial additives or multiple formulations, so it aligns with NOVA 3 (processed foods) rather than NOVA 4 (ultra-processed).
