No — Chicken Grain Salad is not ultra-processed.
Great choice! Mostly made with wholesome, minimally processed ingredients.
This appears to be a chicken grain salad made primarily from cooked grains, chickpeas, vegetables, chicken breast, herbs, spices, raisins, feta, olive oil, and vinegar. These are ordinary culinary ingredients, and no clear ultra-processed additives or industrial formulations are present. The vegetable extract, syrup, mustard, and garlic purée are not sufficiently specified to establish a UPF classification; as listed, they do not clearly identify an industrial additive or refined syrup such as glucose syrup or invert syrup.

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.
