No — Scottish Lochmuir™ oak smoked salmon by M&S is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). Ingredients are salmon and salt only; this is a minimally processed smoked fish without additives, refined syrups, industrial oils, or emulsifiers, so it does not meet NOVA criteria for ultra-processed foods.
Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are industrial formulations made with ingredients and additives you wouldn't find in a home kitchen — such as emulsifiers, artificial flavourings, colourings and modified starches. The classification is based on the NOVA system used by researchers and dietitians worldwide.
