No — WHITE MISO by Miso Tasty Ltd is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The ingredient list is valid and contains only basic foods and traditional fermentation ingredients (water, soybeans/soya, rice, salt, yeast, koji culture). There are no industrial additives, refined syrups, emulsifiers, artificial sweeteners, or other markers of ultra-processing, so this miso is not classified as an ultra-processed food 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.
