What You Should Know

You'd spot this in the refrigerated fresh-pasta or organic prepared foods case — an 8 oz package that reads like a quick weeknight dinner or cozy weekend treat. The vibe is wholesome and comforting with a homemade feel; the ingredient list and creamy filling suggest straightforward culinary processing (mixed cheeses, flours and eggs formed into tortellini) rather than heavy industrial ultra-processing.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

Made from recognizable organic ingredients (ricotta, romano, mozzarella, flours, eggs, potato flakes, sunflower oil) combined into a ready-to-cook prepared pasta; no industrial additives or emulsifiers are listed, so it fits NOVA 3 (processed foods) rather than ultra-processed.
