No — Organic banana and plum multigrain porridge by Sainsbury's is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The ingredients are basic cereal flours and flakes, fruit components, rice flour, and thiamin (a vitamin) for fortification. There are no industrial flavorings, refined industrial syrups, emulsifiers, stabilizers, artificial sweeteners, or other ultra-processed additives, so this is not classified as ultra-processed (UPF) under 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.
