Tofu spread

Tofu spread is a paste made from tofu, vegetables and mayonnaise. The figures here describe a prepared recipe rather than plain tofu. It mainly provides fat, with some protein, and also contains calcium and vitamin E. Per 100g, it provides 20g of fat, 4.4g of protein, 248mg of calcium and 5.9mg of vitamin E.

Calcium helps maintain bones and teeth and supports normal muscle function. Vitamin E helps protect cells from oxidative damage. Fat is a concentrated source of energy, which is relevant for people monitoring their energy intake. The spread also contains salt, worth noting for those watching their salt intake. Full nutrient figures, including energy, salt and saturated fat, are in the tables below.
