No — Organic Tofu, handmade and beechwood-smoked by The Tofoo Co. is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The ingredients are tofu made from water, soy beans, and nigari, plus sea salt. These are basic culinary ingredients without industrial additives, refined syrups, or emulsifiers, so it is not classified as ultra-processed under NOVA.
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.
