Yes — Chicken and Duck Pet Food is ultra-processed.
Not ideal for everyday use because industrial additives are present.
This appears to be a chicken-and-duck pet food formulated from animal ingredients, legumes, oats, vegetables, and seeds. It is classified as ultra-processed because it contains preservatives, which are industrial additives used to extend shelf life. Glucomannan is a functional extracted thickening or gelling agent and also contributes to the industrial formulation. The remaining recognizable ingredients are not, by themselves, ultra-processed under the stated criteria.

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.
