No — Cooks' Homebaking Sicilian Lemon Juice by Waitrose is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). Ingredients are lemon juice and a basic preservative (potassium metabisulphite). Preservatives alone do not make a food ultra-processed under the given rules; no industrial sweeteners, flavorings, emulsifiers, or refined industrial syrups/oils are present.
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.
