Yes — Basmati Rice is ultra-processed.
UPF: an industrial acidity regulator makes this unsuitable for everyday use.
This product is classified as ultra-processed because it contains glucono delta lactone, an industrially processed acidity regulator specifically identified as a UPF ingredient. Sunflower oil is a basic culinary oil and would not independently make the product ultra-processed.
Other crisps, snacks & nuts Nomi has checked — these ones aren't ultra-processed.

Yes — Basmati Rice by Veetee is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). This product is classified as ultra-processed because it contains glucono delta lactone, an industrially processed acidity regulator specifically identified as a UPF ingredient. Sunflower oil is a basic culinary oil and would not independently make the product ultra-processed.
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.
