Yes — Guindilla Roja y queso Malagueta is ultra-processed.
The product is classified as ultra-processed (UPF) because the ingredient list includes several industrial additives and processed ingredients beyond basic culinary components. Specifically: dehydrated glucose syrup (sirop de glucose déshydraté) is an industrially extracted refined sugar; sodium benzoate (benzoate de sodium) is a chemical preservative; calcium chloride (chlorure de calcium) is a firming agent; and citric and acetic acids as acidifiers in a ready-to-eat marinated pepper product. The presence of these additives and refined glucose syrup meets the NOVA criteria for ultra-processed foods.
Other dairy, eggs & yoghurt Nomi has checked — these ones aren't ultra-processed.

Yes — Guindilla Roja y queso Malagueta by Eridanous, Lidl is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). The product is classified as ultra-processed (UPF) because the ingredient list includes several industrial additives and processed ingredients beyond basic culinary components. Specifically: dehydrated glucose syrup (sirop de glucose déshydraté) is an industrially extracted refined sugar; sodium benzoate (benzoate de sodium) is a chemical preservative; calcium chloride (chlorure de calcium) is a firming agent; and citric and acetic acids as acidifiers in a ready-to-eat marinated pepper product. The presence of these additives and refined glucose syrup meets the NOVA criteria for ultra-processed foods.
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.
