Yes — Chilli and Lime is ultra-processed.
The product is ultra-processed because the ingredient list includes additives and industrial ingredients such as “natural flavourings,” “yeast extract powder” (a flavour enhancer), and “lime juice powder,” as well as being a ready-to-eat seasoned nut snack. These extracted and formulated additives go beyond basic culinary ingredients and meet 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.
