Nutritionally it provides 483 kcal per 100 g, with high levels of fat (22 g), saturated fat (10 g), sugars (22 g) and salt (1 g), while offering 6.4 g of fiber and 7 g of protein, resulting in a Nutri‑Score of E and a NOVA 4 ultra‑processed rating. The formulation contains palm‑derived vegetable fat, added sugars, sodium bicarbonate and ammonium carbonate, and includes gluten and oats, which may be problematic for gluten‑sensitive consumers and raise sustainability concerns about palm oil.
