No — Light Brown Soft Natural Unrefined Cane Sugar by Billington's is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). This is a minimally processed traditional sugar made from cane sugar. Sugar and unrefined cane sugar are basic food ingredients, not industrial formulations or ultra-processed additives under the NOVA 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.
