Yes — Lighter Coconut Milk by Sainsbury's is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). The product contains industrial stabilisers/emulsifiers such as polysorbate 60 and carboxymethylcellulose, which are food additives characteristic of ultra-processed foods under the NOVA classification.
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.
