Yes — Finest Coleslaw by Tesco is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). The coleslaw contains stabilisers and a thickener, which are industrial additives used to modify texture and shelf life. Their presence classifies the product as ultra-processed 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.
