Not UPF
No — Pure Basmati Rice by Tilda is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The ingredient list is valid and contains only basmati rice and rice bran oil, both of which are basic, minimally processed culinary ingredients without industrial additives, refined syrups, or cosmetic processing aids. Therefore this product is not classified as ultra-processed (NOVA 4).
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.
