Barcode 4088600552750
Ultra-Processed Food (UPF)

Yes — Roast Chicken Breast Fillet is ultra-processed.

Not ideal for everyday eating because it contains industrially processed sugars.

This roast chicken breast fillet is classified as ultra-processed because it contains dextrose and maltodextrin, both industrially extracted and processed sugars that are UPF ingredients under NOVA. The product also contains maize starch, rice starch, corn starch, d-xylose, sunflower oil, salt, and sugar; these do not independently determine the classification here.
