No — Vanilla Butter Spread is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The product contains only normandy butter and Madagascan vanilla extract. Both are minimally processed culinary ingredients without industrial additives, refined syrups, artificial sweeteners, flavor enhancers, or emulsifiers as defined in the NOVA UPF 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.
