Ultra-Processed Food (UPF)

Yes — Margarine huile d'olive is ultra-processed.

This margarine is ultra-processed because it contains several industrial additives: emulsifiers (mono- & diglycerides of fatty acids, lecithin) and natural flavourings. Mono- and diglycerides and lecithin are industrial emulsifiers, and natural flavourings are extracted, formulated additives. Palm oil is also a highly refined oil. These ingredients place the product in the ultra-processed (NOVA 4) category.
