No — Gluten free Buckwheat Penne by Freee is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). Buckwheat flour is a basic, minimally processed flour made by milling buckwheat grains. It contains no industrial formulations or additives associated with ultra-processing.
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.
