No — Sweet & Fluffy Cous Cous by Sainsbury's is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The only ingredient is durum wheat semolina, which is a basic minimally processed culinary ingredient with no additives, industrial sweeteners, or ultra-processed components. Therefore it is not classified as an ultra-processed food (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.
