No — Smoked Salmon Slices by Tesco is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The product contains salmon, salt, and sugar only. These are basic ingredients with no industrial additives, flavorings, or ultra-processed components per NOVA; therefore it is not classified as 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.
