No — Spinach ravioli is not ultra-processed.
The ingredient list contains only basic culinary ingredients (durum wheat semolina, water, spinach, wheat flour, vegetable oils including fully refined soybean oil, cannellini beans, salt, garlic, lemon juice, black pepper, nutmeg, yeast). There are no industrial additives, refined syrups, artificial sweeteners, flavor enhancers, emulsifiers, stabilizers, thickeners, or industrial extracts. Fully refined soybean oil, although refined, is still a basic culinary vegetable oil under these rules. Therefore this is not classified as ultra-processed (UPF) under NOVA as defined here.

No — Spinach ravioli by Sainsbury's,Plant Pioneers is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The ingredient list contains only basic culinary ingredients (durum wheat semolina, water, spinach, wheat flour, vegetable oils including fully refined soybean oil, cannellini beans, salt, garlic, lemon juice, black pepper, nutmeg, yeast). There are no industrial additives, refined syrups, artificial sweeteners, flavor enhancers, emulsifiers, stabilizers, thickeners, or industrial extracts. Fully refined soybean oil, although refined, is still a basic culinary vegetable oil under these rules. Therefore this is not classified as ultra-processed (UPF) under NOVA as defined here.
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.
