What You Should Know

You'd spot Mitica Classic Taralli on the cracker or international aisle or served on a grazing board at a casual gathering — a small, ring-shaped crunchy snack people nibble with cheese and wine. It feels rustic and nostalgic, and the short ingredient list (wheat flour, white wine, extra virgin olive oil, pomace oil, salt) and baked crunchy texture point to a traditionally made, processed bakery snack rather than an ultra-processed formulation, though refined ingredients like pomace oil and milled flour reflect industrial processing steps.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?
