Yes — Sausage and vegetable Big soup is ultra-processed.
The product is classified as ultra-processed because the ingredient list includes several industrially processed additives: glucose syrup (an industrial refined sugar syrup), modified cornflour (a chemically modified starch used as a thickener), flavourings (industrial flavour additives), and yeast extract (a processed flavour enhancer). These are characteristic ultra-processed ingredients according to NOVA.

Yes — Sausage and vegetable Big soup by Heinz, Sokolow is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). The product is classified as ultra-processed because the ingredient list includes several industrially processed additives: glucose syrup (an industrial refined sugar syrup), modified cornflour (a chemically modified starch used as a thickener), flavourings (industrial flavour additives), and yeast extract (a processed flavour enhancer). These are characteristic ultra-processed ingredients according to 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.
