No — Scottish Kiln Smoked Kippers 230g is not ultra-processed.
A simple, traditionally smoked fish product—fine for regular meals.
This is a minimally processed fish product made mainly from smoked herring, butter, and salt. Natural colour E160b(ii) (annatto) is a traditional colour derived from annatto seeds and does not by itself indicate an ultra-processed formulation. No artificial sweeteners, flavour enhancers, emulsifiers, refined industrial syrups, or highly processed oils are present. Smoking and salting are traditional preservation methods, so this product is not ultra-processed under NOVA.

The classification is based on the NOVA system used by researchers and dietitians worldwide.
