No — Potato Fries is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The ingredients list is valid and contains only potatoes and sunflower oil, both of which are basic culinary ingredients without industrial additives, refined syrups, or processing aids indicative of ultra-processed foods under NOVA.
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.
Scan any barcode — or photograph the ingredients label — with the free Nomi app for iOS and Android. You'll get an instant ultra-processed verdict with every ingredient explained in plain English.
