No — Half fat crème fraîche by Yeo Valley is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The only listed ingredient is milk, which is a basic single-ingredient food with no additives or industrial formulations. Fermentation or fat reduction alone does not make a product ultra-processed under NOVA; the absence of additives and industrial sweeteners/emulsifiers means it is not classified as UPF.
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.
