No — Butter Biscuits is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The product contains wheat flour (with mineral/vitamin fortification), butter, sugar, and salt. These are basic culinary ingredients without industrial sweeteners, flavor enhancers, emulsifiers, or other cosmetic additives. Under NOVA, this would be classified as a processed food, not an ultra-processed food (UPF).
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.
