Yes — Chicken Dippers is ultra-processed.
The product is classified as ultra-processed because it contains palm oil (a highly refined industrial oil), as well as industrial additives/ingredients such as natural flavourings and diphosphates (raising agents). These ingredients go beyond basic culinary components and fit NOVA’s definition of ultra-processed formulations.

Yes — Chicken Dippers by Birds Eye is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). The product is classified as ultra-processed because it contains palm oil (a highly refined industrial oil), as well as industrial additives/ingredients such as natural flavourings and diphosphates (raising agents). These ingredients go beyond basic culinary components and fit NOVA’s definition of ultra-processed formulations.
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.
