Ultra-Processed Food (UPF)

Yes — Fully Loaded Jalapeño Peanuts is ultra-processed.

The product is classified as ultra-processed because it contains several industrial ingredients and additives: dextrose and dried glucose syrup (industrially refined sugars), yeast extract (a processed flavor enhancer), flavourings (industrial flavorings), and sodium diacetate (an acidity regulator). According to NOVA, the presence of these additives and refined ingredients makes the overall product UPF, even though the base ingredient (peanuts) is minimally processed.
