No — Grated grana padano by Grana Padano is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). Ingredients are cheese (milk) and egg lysozyme (a preservative enzyme). No industrial sweeteners, flavourings, emulsifiers, or other ultra-processed additives are present, so 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.
