Yes — Puff Pastry by Sainsbury's is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). Product contains palm oil (a highly processed refined oil) plus other ultra-processed additives including emulsifier (mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids), preservative (potassium sorbate), and added flavouring. Presence of any such ingredients classifies it as an ultra-processed food (NOVA 4).
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.
