No — Tomato Chilli Sauce is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). Ingredients are mainly water, tomatoes, sugar, garlic, red wine vinegar, tomato juice, ginger, cornflour, sea salt, coriander, soybeans, lime juice, red chillies, roasted garlic purée, roasted spring onion oil, and roasted wheat. These are basic culinary ingredients with no industrial additives, refined syrups, artificial sweeteners, or emulsifiers, so this is not classified as ultra-processed according to the NOVA criteria provided.
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.
