Common questions about Tartare Sauce

Is Tartare Sauce ultra-processed?

Yes — Tartare Sauce is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). Contains sorbic acid (a preservative) and acetic acid (an acidity regulator), which are industrial additives typical of ultra-processed foods.

What does "ultra-processed" (UPF) mean?

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.
