Yes — Ice cream mint choc chip is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). Classified as ultra-processed because it contains emulsifier (organic soya lecithin), which is an industrial additive used to modify texture and stability, meeting the NOVA criteria for ultra-processed foods.
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.
