No — Boil in the Bag Brown Rice by Sainsbury's by By sainsbury's is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The only ingredient is 100% long grain brown rice, a single-ingredient, minimally processed food with no additives or industrial formulations, so it is not classified as ultra-processed according to NOVA.
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.
