Cheese
Cheese is not a marker of ultra-processing. It is one of the markers Open Food Facts uses to classify a food as processed (NOVA group 3).
What it is and why it counts
Cheese is milk preserved with salt, cultures and rennet.
Processed ingredients
These are processed foods in their own right (group 3), preserved versions of whole foods, so a product containing them is at least processed.
Where it turns up
Cheese appears in 2,505 of the 40,000 products on this site (6%).
