Yes — Milk Chocolate is ultra-processed.
The product is classified as ultra-processed because it contains lecithins as an emulsifier, which is an industrial additive, making it a UPF according to the NOVA classification. Other ingredients like sugar and milk powders are processed but not sufficient alone to classify it as UPF; the presence of emulsifier is decisive.
Other crisps, snacks & nuts Nomi has checked — these ones aren't ultra-processed.
