No — Punjabi Chickpea Masala by Spice Tailor is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The ingredient list is valid and consists only of whole foods and basic culinary ingredients (chickpeas, vegetables, oil, spices, salt, tomato paste). It contains no industrial additives, refined industrial syrups, artificial sweeteners, flavor enhancers, emulsifiers, stabilizers, or other markers of ultra-processing according to 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.
