Yes — Chicken Liver Pâté is ultra-processed.
A highly processed pâté, best enjoyed occasionally rather than daily.
This is a chicken liver pâté. It is classified as ultra-processed because it contains palm kernel oil and palm oil, which are refined industrial oils, plus natural flavouring, mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids as an emulsifier, and sodium alginate as a stabiliser. These additives and industrially formulated ingredients are UPF markers. Potassium sorbate and beta-carotene are also added preservatives and colouring agents, reinforcing the industrial formulation.

The classification is based on the NOVA system used by researchers and dietitians worldwide.
