Ultra-Processed Food (UPF)

Yes — Noodle Creamy Shrimp Tom Yum is ultra-processed.

The product is ultra-processed because the ingredient list contains multiple industrial additives and processed ingredients, including: palm oil and hydrogenated palm oil (highly refined oils), modified tapioca starch (industrial starch modification), glucose syrup (industrial sugar), flavor enhancers E621 (monosodium glutamate) and E635, emulsifier/stabilizer sodium caseinate, acidity regulators (E330, E500, E501, E451), thickener E466 (carboxymethylcellulose), colorants (E171, E160c, E160a), and added “arômes” (flavourings). The presence of these additives and formulations clearly places it in the NOVA ultra-processed category.
