Yes — Epic Mature cheddar flavour by violife is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). Classified as ultra-processed because it contains several industrial ingredients/additives, including modified starch, added mature cheddar flavour, and color (beta-carotene), which fall under NOVA group 4 ultra-processed foods.
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.
