Yes — Skin on fries by Tesco is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). The fries contain dextrose, an industrially refined sugar used for processing and texture, which classifies this product 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.
