Yes — Lentil Chips is ultra-processed.
The product is classified as ultra-processed (UPF) because the ingredient list includes industrial additives and formulations. Specifically, it contains 'flavourings' and 'yeast extract powder', both of which are UPF ingredients used for flavour enhancement and are not traditional culinary ingredients. Other ingredients like lentil flour, potato starch, vegetable oil, and spices are not in themselves UPF, but the presence of these identified UPF additives makes the overall product UPF according to the NOVA criteria.
Other crisps, snacks & nuts Nomi has checked — these ones aren't ultra-processed.
