No — Mixed Bean Medley by Aldi is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). Ingredients appear to be beans in water with calcium chloride as a firming agent. Calcium chloride is a simple mineral salt used for texture and is allowed without classifying the product as ultra-processed under the given rules.
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.
