Yes — Palmeritas is ultra-processed.

Not a great choice for everyday.

This product is ultra-processed because it contains palm fat (graisse de palme), glucose-fructose syrup (sirop de glucose-fructose), and flavourings (arômes). Palm fat is a highly processed refined oil, glucose-fructose syrup is an industrially extracted sugar syrup, and flavourings are industrial additives associated with ultra-processing. The carotenoid colouring is also an extracted additive, but the decisive UPF ingredients are the palm fat, glucose-fructose syrup, and flavourings.
