Yes — What The Cluck Vegan Chicken Style Chunks by The Vegetarian Butcher is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). Classified as ultra-processed because it contains industrial additives: natural flavourings (industrial flavour additives) and a structured soy protein matrix, both indicating significant industrial processing beyond basic culinary preparation.
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.
