Yes — Double Gloucester Cheese by Tesco is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). Classified as ultra-processed because it contains the additive annatto norbixin (a color additive), which is an extracted, industrially processed compound not normally used in home cooking.
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.
