No — Scottish Strawberry Preserve by Mackays is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). Ingredients are basic foods (sugar, strawberries) plus traditional gelling/acidifying agents (pectin, citric acid) with no industrial sweeteners, flavorings, or ultra-processed additives.
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.
