No — Soft cream cheese is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The only ingredient is full fat soft cheese from pasteurised milk, with no additives, industrial sweeteners, emulsifiers, flavourings, or other ultra-processed ingredients. This is a basic dairy product and would not be 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.
