Tofu is not actually very processed. It's an ancient dish, on the order of 2000 years old, that is essentially just cheese making but with soy beans instead of milk.

(Agreeing with and amplifying you:) Tofu is processed only in the sense that some techniques for making soy milk involve grinding the soy beans.
I don’t think “pressing the curds for a while”, which is about all there is to making tofu after curdling hot soy milk, really qualifies as processed.
