No — Sardines in Tomato Sauce by Nixe by Lidl is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). Ingredients are sardines, tomato paste, water, and salt, which are minimally processed foods without industrial additives, refined syrups, or emulsifiers; therefore not ultra-processed according to 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.
