Yes — Shiitake Chips Wasabi is ultra-processed.
The product is classified as ultra-processed (UPF) according to NOVA. The ingredient list is valid. It contains sustainable palm oil, which is a highly processed refined oil, and yeast extract, which is a pre-identified UPF ingredient and an industrially produced flavor enhancer. These additives make the product ultra-processed, even though it also contains basic ingredients like shiitake mushroom, maltose, salt, and sugar.
