No — All Butter Shortbread by Morrisons is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). Ingredients are basic culinary components: wheat flour (with vitamin/mineral fortification), salted butter, corn starch, caster sugar, and dried cream. No industrial sweeteners, flavor enhancers, emulsifiers, stabilizers, thickeners, industrial extracts, or highly processed oils are present, so it does not meet the NOVA criteria for 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.
