Ultra-Processed Food (UPF)

Yes — Huile piquante is ultra-processed.

The product contains “chilli flavouring,” which is an added flavouring agent. Flavourings are industrially produced additives and fall under ultra-processed ingredients according to NOVA. Therefore, even though the base is extra virgin olive oil with dried chilli, the presence of flavouring makes the overall product ultra-processed.
