No — Condensed milk is not ultra-processed.
The ingredient list is valid. Ingredients are whole milk, sugar, and a basic stabiliser (calcium chloride). Whole milk and sugar are minimally processed foods, and calcium chloride is a simple mineral salt used as a stabilizer, not an industrial ultra-processing additive under the given rules. No artificial sweeteners, industrial flavorings, emulsifiers, or industrially processed syrups are present, so this is not classified as ultra-processed (UPF) according to the provided NOVA-based criteria.

No — Condensed milk by Lidl is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The ingredient list is valid. Ingredients are whole milk, sugar, and a basic stabiliser (calcium chloride). Whole milk and sugar are minimally processed foods, and calcium chloride is a simple mineral salt used as a stabilizer, not an industrial ultra-processing additive under the given rules. No artificial sweeteners, industrial flavorings, emulsifiers, or industrially processed syrups are present, so this is not classified as ultra-processed (UPF) according to the provided NOVA-based criteria.
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.
