No — Very lazy smoked chopped garlic is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). Ingredients are white wine vinegar (with sulphites) and dried smoked garlic, which are minimally processed culinary ingredients without industrial additives, refined syrups, emulsifiers, or artificial sweeteners; therefore this is not classified as ultra-processed under NOVA.
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.
