No — Madagascan dark chocolate 80% by Sainsbury's is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). Ingredients are cocoa mass, sugar, and cocoa butter, which are basic culinary ingredients without industrial additives, refined syrups, emulsifiers, or flavorings. Therefore, this product is not classified as ultra-processed under NOVA.
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.
