No — Tomato & basil soup by By Sainsbury's is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The ingredient list contains mainly basic, minimally processed ingredients: tomatoes, water, sugar, rapeseed oil, starch, herbs, milk powder, cream, spices, salt, and citric acid as a basic acidity regulator. There are no industrial additives like emulsifiers, artificial sweeteners, flavourings, refined industrial syrups, or modified oils. Therefore, this is not classified as an ultra-processed food under NOVA.
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.
