Taho is a popular Filipino snack made from soft tofu, sweet syrup, and sago or tapioca pearls. This comforting treat is often enjoyed as a breakfast or mid-day pick-me-up. The tofu, the primary ingredient, is a rich source of plant-based protein and essential nutrients like calcium and iron, promoting bone health and muscle repair. The syrup, traditionally made from caramelized sugar or arnibal, provides sweetness but contributes to its high sugar content, making moderation key for those monitoring sugar intake. The tapioca pearls add texture and carbohydrates for energy. Taho’s origins trace back to Chinese influences, with its simplicity and flavor adapting to local Filipino tastes over time. While it offers beneficial nutrients from tofu, its sugar content may make it less ideal for frequent consumption for individuals seeking a low-glycemic diet. Taho is best savored as part of a balanced diet.
