Breaded chunky cod loins
Product Insights
Breaded chunky cod loins are a frozen, breaded fish product made primarily of Atlantic cod (about 70%) coated with a wheat‑based breadcrumb and fried in rapeseed oil. It belongs to the "Fish Meat Eggs" PNNS group, carries a Nutri‑Score of A thanks to its high protein (≈15 g/100 g) and low sugars, while the overall fat (≈6 g) and saturated fat (≈0.5 g) are moderate. Nevertheless, the product is classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and contains added salt, sugar and gluten, which may be concerns for low‑salt or gluten‑free diets.
