What You Should Know

You’d spot this tub of pre-cooked organic basmati in the grains or ready-meals section (or tucked in the pantry/refrigerated shelf) — a grab-and-heat option for a busy weeknight or quick side. The organic label and single-ingredient list feel wholesome and practical, but the industrial pre-cooking and packaging alter texture and convenience in ways that are characteristic of ready-to-eat/ultra-processed products.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:4 / 4

Ultra-Processed

Why this score?

Although the ingredient list is just rice and water, the product is industrially pre-cooked and packaged for immediate consumption, which aligns with NOVA group 4 (ultra-processed) because of the ready-to-eat processing and convenience focus rather than minimal home-style preparation.
