HOME>Thoughts on Natto
Natto is highly nutritious.
I hope people enjoy it in many different ways, in a variety of flavors and styles.
Natto is highly nutritious and good for you. As the region’s leading natto maker, I believe our role is important. We offer unique products that even people who aren’t fond of natto should try at least once. Please enjoy our more than 30 varieties—from natto ice cream to options that may help curb increases in blood sugar.
Our wish to help people enjoy a variety of flavors has led to an industry-leading lineup of more than 30 varieties.
Kosugi Foods produces not only classic natto but also a wide range of unique products. Because supermarket shelves mostly carry classic natto, many people are surprised and say, “I didn’t know this kind of natto existed!” That’s why we offer so many varieties—to help more people enjoy natto in delightful new ways. Natto is highly nutritious and pairs well with many foods, offering a wide range of flavors. Even the choice of soybean variety makes a big difference in flavor. With so much to choose from, we believe even those who aren’t fond of natto will find a variety that makes them say, “I can enjoy this one.”
Natto is a traditional Japanese food, yet it continues to evolve. We continually introduce new ways to enjoy it.
We place great importance on product planning and have built a large, dedicated team. This focus has produced a wide range of unique products. Although natto has a traditional, old-fashioned image, its health benefits have been increasingly recognized in recent years, and the category continues to evolve. One example is “DC-15 Natto,” fermented with the natto strain of the same name, which is expected to help curb increases in blood sugar. It is becoming more popular by the day.
