Yes — Sweet Chilli Rice Cake is ultra-processed.
Classified as ultra-processed because the ingredient list includes industrial additives and extracts such as unspecified flavouring, citric acid as an acidity regulator, and multiple spice/extract concentrates (cayenne pepper extract, fennel extract, liquorice extract, habanero chilli extract, paprika extract). These are isolated or industrially processed ingredients used for flavor enhancement rather than basic culinary components, placing the product in the ultra-processed NOVA category.

Yes — Sweet Chilli Rice Cake by M&S is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). Classified as ultra-processed because the ingredient list includes industrial additives and extracts such as unspecified flavouring, citric acid as an acidity regulator, and multiple spice/extract concentrates (cayenne pepper extract, fennel extract, liquorice extract, habanero chilli extract, paprika extract). These are isolated or industrially processed ingredients used for flavor enhancement rather than basic culinary components, placing the product in the ultra-processed NOVA category.
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.
