Ultra-processed food: what is really in it
Processing and additives: Wetherspoon Margherita Pizza (11")
Wetherspoon Margherita Pizza (11") is assembled from 5 separately listed components, combined and cooked in the pub kitchen. Reading the ingredient list closely, it contains antioxidants. Most of these are routine processing aids rather than markers of ultra-processing.
Antioxidants
Slow the natural oxidation of fats, so components keep their colour and flavour. Found in the sourdough pizza.
Boone classifies Wetherspoon Margherita Pizza (11") as NOVA group 3, processed, because it combines whole foods with salt, sugar, oil or simple preserving methods but no markers of ultra-processing. NOVA groups foods by how far they are from their whole-food form, not by how nutritious they are. A group 4 food is not automatically unhealthy, and a group 1 food is not automatically healthy. Read from the published ingredient list, retrieved 3 October 2026.

Boone counts every distinct named ingredient on Wetherspoon’s published component lists, including sub-ingredients, and removes duplicates, so salt appearing in four components counts once. Additive class names are dropped and the named substance kept, so “stabiliser (guar gum)” counts guar gum once, and the vitamins and minerals added to fortified flour are not counted separately. Raw covers whole foods and basic kitchen staples such as flour, sugar, salt and oil. Manufactured covers substances that only exist as an output of industrial processing. Where Wetherspoon lists more than one approved supplier recipe only the first is counted, so every figure here is a minimum. The build uses a garlic and herb dip and a warm chocolate brownie with ice cream.
