No — Pizza Sauce by Loyd Grossman is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The only ingredient listed is maize starch, which is a basic single-ingredient culinary starch and not an industrial formulation with additives. There are no artificial sweeteners, flavor enhancers, emulsifiers, refined syrups, or other ultra-processed additives present, so this product is not classified as ultra-processed according to the given NOVA-based rules.
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.
