Yes — Sainsbury's Orange Squash 4X by By sainsbury's is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). Classified as ultra-processed due to presence of artificial sweeteners (sucralose, acesulfame K), industrial stabiliser (carboxymethylcellulose), preservatives (potassium sorbate, sodium metabisulphite), and added flavourings, all of which are characteristic of NOVA ultra-processed foods.
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.
