Morinaga Nutritional Foods, Inc. (MNF), a leading producer of soy products, probiotics, and postbiotic ingredients, has unveiled its Mori-Nu plus, a new line of plant-based food products dedicated to promoting human health. Built upon Morinaga’s 100-plus years of food technology and innovation experience, the product is a new brand of MNF, adding to its lines of silken tofu products with a smooth texture, nutritious value, and shelf-stability since 1985.
Mori-Nu Plus Fortified Tofu is a new product concept that takes tofu beyond its standard nutritional profile and taste experience. Mori-Nu Plus Fortified Tofu is extra creamy and smooth. It serves as a good source of protein, vitamin D, calcium, and an efficacious amount of prebiotics and their proprietary postbiotic LAC-ShieldTM. Additionally, it incorporates award-winning aseptic Tetra Pak® packaging, providing the convenience of shelf-stable storage, with a shelf life of up to eight months from production and no refrigeration required until opened.
“We are honored to have served our customers with delicious and wholesome plant-based foods since 1985,” stated Satoshi Endo, MNF president, and CEO. “Our mission has always remained the same: to facilitate an easy and delicious intake of nutrients while promoting a wholly nutritious lifestyle backed by evidence-based, scientific facts. We are excited to introduce a new concept of tofu, Mori-Nu Plus Fortified Tofu, which can be adapted to everyday recipes and is made for all healthy-living enthusiasts,” he added.
Mori-Nu Plus Fortified Tofu is dairy-free, vegan, verified gluten-free, verified non-GMO, and Kosher DE. Its inception follows MNF’s decades of providing nutritious and delicious food production products to consumers in Japan, one of the healthiest nations in the world, and most recently, over 30 years of leadership in providing plant-based foods in the US and beyond. Ultimately, Mori-Nu plus Fortified Tofu does not contain any animal ingredients, is vegetarian friendly, and given its versatility, caters to all taste palates and most diets.
