What You Should Know

You'd spot this in the baking/grains aisle or near specialty pasta-making supplies, often picked up for a weekend pasta project or to give homemade breads and pastas a nutty, firm bite. It has a practical, slightly nostalgic vibe—evoking from-scratch cooking and artisanal pasta—rather than indulgent convenience. The product is a milled, refined and enriched durum flour, so you can expect a coarse semolina texture; the simple ingredient list with added vitamins shows industrial processing and fortification but not the complex formulations of ultra-processed foods.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

Durum semolina that has been milled, refined and fortified with synthetic vitamins is industrially processed (milling and enrichment), placing it in NOVA group 3 as a processed staple. The ingredient list lacks additives characteristic of ultra-processed foods (no emulsifiers, flavors, or preservatives), so it is not classified as ultra-processed.
