Boone classifies Wetherspoon Spicy Rice as NOVA group 4, ultra-processed, based on the industrial ingredients named above. 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.

What those ingredients are, by type

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.
