10 Best Tofu Brands

Humans have consumed tofu for over 2,000 years. Although tofu originated in China, it has won the hearts and taste buds of consumers worldwide. Traditional tofu (bean curd) is made by pressing the curds of coagulated soy milk into silken, soft, firm, or extra-firm white blocks. The best tofu should offer high protein content and nutritional value. According to the US Department of Agriculture, a three-ounce (85-gram) serving of firm tofu contains 8 to 12 grams of protein. A half-cup serving can contribute around 15 to 20 grams of protein to your daily nutritional needs. But which are the best tofu brands? [1]
