No — White Miso is not ultra-processed.
The ingredient list is simple and consists only of water, soybeans, rice, and salt, which are minimally processed ingredients used in traditional fermentation. There are no industrial additives, refined syrups, artificial sweeteners, flavor enhancers, or emulsifiers, so this miso is not classified as ultra-processed under NOVA.

The ingredient list is simple and consists only of water, soybeans, rice, and salt, which are minimally processed ingredients used in traditional fermentation.

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.
