No — Chunky Green Thai Chicken Soup is not ultra-processed.
A wholesome soup made mostly with simple, recognizable ingredients.
This is not ultra-processed because it is primarily made from recognizable foods and basic culinary ingredients: chicken, vegetables, coconut cream, rice noodles, herbs, spices, rapeseed oil, and simple seasonings. The green curry paste contains acetic acid and lactic acid as preservatives, but these are basic food acids rather than UPF-defining industrial formulations. Garlic and ginger purées, soy sauce, and fish sauce are traditionally processed ingredients, and no artificial sweeteners, flavor enhancers, emulsifiers, stabilizers, refined industrial syrups, or highly processed oils are present.

No — Chunky Green Thai Chicken Soup by M&S Food is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). This is not ultra-processed because it is primarily made from recognizable foods and basic culinary ingredients: chicken, vegetables, coconut cream, rice noodles, herbs, spices, rapeseed oil, and simple seasonings. The green curry paste contains acetic acid and lactic acid as preservatives, but these are basic food acids rather than UPF-defining industrial formulations. Garlic and ginger purées, soy sauce, and fish sauce are traditionally processed ingredients, and no artificial sweeteners, flavor enhancers, emulsifiers, stabilizers, refined industrial syrups, or highly processed oils are present.
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.
