No — Red Salsa by Marks & Spencer is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The ingredient list is valid and contains mostly basic culinary ingredients (tomatoes, tomato juice, onion, tomato concentrate, sugar, rapeseed oil, cider vinegar, sea salt, lime juice concentrate, coriander, dried roasted garlic, jalapeño peppers). The only additive is citric acid as an acidity regulator, which is allowed as a basic food additive and does not by itself make the product ultra-processed according to the given criteria.
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.
