Ultra-processed food: what is really in it

Processing: GAIL's Gluten-Free Sourdough

Boone cannot classify this item, because GAIL's does not publish an ingredient list for it.

NOVA classification is read from an ingredient list. Without one there is no way to count additives, separate raw ingredients from manufactured ones, or say whether an item is ultra-processed. Boone does not estimate a NOVA group, because a guess presented as a classification would be worse than saying nothing.

Where an item on this menu is a sealed branded product, a canned soft drink for example, the manufacturer’s own label is used and a NOVA group is given.

Ingredients

GAIL's does not publish ingredient lists

Ingredients: GAIL's Gluten-Free Sourdough

GAIL's does not publish the ingredients in GAIL's Gluten-Free Sourdough, and it is under no legal obligation to do so.

Food and drinks made in a bakery and sold loose or made to order count as non-prepacked under UK food law. The legal requirement is to declare the 14 major allergens, and for large businesses in England to show calories at the point of choice. A full ingredient list is voluntary. Items GAIL's packs on site for direct sale carry their ingredients on the label in the bakery, but GAIL's does not publish them online.

This means no page on this site can tell you how many ingredients are in this item, how many of them are manufactured substances, or whether it is ultra-processed. Boone will not estimate any of it. That absence is GAIL's decision, not an omission on our part.

Allergen information for this item is published by GAIL's and is shown below. Recipes change, so always check in the bakery before ordering if you have an allergy.

Contains = declared by GAIL's as an ingredient. Not listed = not declared as an ingredient, which is not a guarantee that it is absent. GAIL's makes its food and drinks by hand with many ingredients and shared equipment, so it cannot guarantee any item is free from allergens. GAIL's lists oat milk as cereals containing gluten.
