This is not allowed under EU and UK rules. You can't just add natural nitrites (like celery juice extract) and call it nitrite-free.
Here's the ingredients list for a popular brand of nitrite-free bacon in the UK:

They explicitly state that they do not add any nitrites in any form: "We do not use any nitrites, whether from traditional sodium nitrite or nitrites derived from vegetable extracts like celery juice."
