No — Ser cheddar w plastrach by Valley Spire is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). This is a traditionally made cheese containing cow's milk, salt, and lactic acid fermentation cultures. These are basic dairy-making ingredients, and the lactose present in the cultures is not an industrial additive that makes the product ultra-processed.
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.
