No — Red Miso Paste by Miso Tasty is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). Ingredients are water, organic soybeans, organic rice, salt, yeast, and koji culture. These are minimally processed or traditionally fermented ingredients with no industrial additives, refined syrups, flavorings, or emulsifiers, so this 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.
