Yes — Naked Good Little Chipolatas is ultra-processed.

The product is classified as ultra-processed (UPF) because it contains several industrial additives/ingredients: 'flavourings', 'antioxidant: ascorbic acid', and 'dextrose', as well as being 'filled into vegetable-based casings'. Flavourings are industrially produced additives; ascorbic acid used as an antioxidant is a synthesized additive; dextrose is an industrially refined sugar; and vegetable-based casings are manufactured materials rather than simple culinary ingredients. Under NOVA, the presence of these additives makes the product an ultra-processed food.
