No — Rice Pudding by Ambrosia is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The product contains full cream milk, skimmed milk, whey, rice, and sugar. All are basic ingredients or minimally processed components without industrial additives, refined syrups, emulsifiers, flavor enhancers, or other markers of ultra-processing under NOVA. Therefore it is not classified as an ultra-processed food (UPF).
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.
