Yes — Fruit Jelly is ultra-processed.
Not a great choice for everyday.
This appears to be a fruit jelly or jelly dessert. It is classified as ultra-processed because it contains dextrose, an industrially extracted sugar identified as a UPF ingredient. Carrageenan (E 407) and locust bean gum (E 410) are extracted gelling and thickening agents; calcium acetate (E 263) and potassium chloride (E 508) are industrial additives used to regulate acidity and texture. Dextrose alone is sufficient for the UPF classification.

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.
