No — Cheesetrings Twisted 8pk is not ultra-processed.
The provided ingredients are acidity regulators (citric acid, lactic acid), paprika, and vitamins (B6, D, B12). These are basic additives and nutrients commonly used in minimally processed foods and do not themselves constitute ultra-processing under the given criteria. However, this ingredient list is clearly incomplete for a cheese snack product (e.g., it omits milk/cheese, salt, etc.), so the assessment is based only on the partial list supplied.

No — Cheesetrings Twisted 8pk by Strings & Things is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The provided ingredients are acidity regulators (citric acid, lactic acid), paprika, and vitamins (B6, D, B12).

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.
