Yes — Cream of Tomato Soup is ultra-processed.
Not a great choice for everyday.
This cream of tomato soup is ultra-processed because it contains modified maize starch, flavourings, and onion extract, which are industrially processed additives or extracts associated with ultra-processing. The remaining ingredients, such as tomatoes, cream, sugar, rapeseed oil, salt, milk, and citric acid, do not independently determine the classification.
Other ready meals Nomi has checked — these ones aren't ultra-processed.

Yes — Cream of Tomato Soup by Aldi Bramwells is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). This cream of tomato soup is ultra-processed because it contains modified maize starch, flavourings, and onion extract, which are industrially processed additives or extracts associated with ultra-processing. The remaining ingredients, such as tomatoes, cream, sugar, rapeseed oil, salt, milk, and citric acid, do not independently determine the classification.
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.
