Yes — Dominican Republic Dark Chocolate 72 is ultra-processed.
Not a great choice for everyday, due to industrial additives.
This dark chocolate is classified as ultra-processed because it contains soya lecithins, an emulsifier, and flavouring. These are industrial additives used to modify texture and taste. Sugar, cocoa mass, and cocoa butter are basic chocolate ingredients, but the emulsifier and flavouring lead to the UPF classification.
Other crisps, snacks & nuts Nomi has checked — these ones aren't ultra-processed.

Yes — Dominican Republic Dark Chocolate 72 by Morrisons is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). This dark chocolate is classified as ultra-processed because it contains soya lecithins, an emulsifier, and flavouring. These are industrial additives used to modify texture and taste. Sugar, cocoa mass, and cocoa butter are basic chocolate ingredients, but the emulsifier and flavouring lead to 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.
