No — Cuban Style Citrusy Garlic Seasoning Blend is not ultra-processed.
This seasoning blend primarily contains herbs, spices, citrus oils/juice, salt, citric acid, and rice concentrate. Citric acid is a common basic additive and rice concentrate is typically used as an anti-caking agent; neither are on the specified list of ultra-processed indicators. There are no artificial sweeteners, flavor enhancers, industrially processed sugars, emulsifiers, stabilizers, or refined palm fruit oil, so it is not classified as ultra-processed under the provided NOVA-based rules.

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.
