Yes — Mushy Chip Shop by Batchelors is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). Classified as ultra-processed because it contains colour additives (E101, E133), which are industrial food additives used to alter appearance and meet the NOVA definition of ultra-processed foods.
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.
