No — bi by Birds Eye is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The ingredients are basic foods and culinary components: fish, breadcrumb coating made from wheat flour, water, potato starch, salt, paprika, yeast, plus rapeseed oil and turmeric. There are no industrial additives (emulsifiers, thickeners, flavourings, artificial sweeteners, isolated industrial sugars, or highly processed fats such as palm fruit oil). Therefore, under the provided NOVA-based criteria, this is not an ultra-processed food (UPF).
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.
