Why is Cooked vegetables for couscous d'aucy classified as moderately processed (NOVA 3) and does it contain any additives?

It is placed in NOVA group 3 because it is a canned ready-to-eat vegetable preparation that includes added salt, rapeseed oil and spices, but the ingredient list contains zero listed additives (additives_n = 0), so no E-numbers or preservatives are present.

Is the celery in this vegetable mix a concern for people with a celery allergy?

Yes; celery is explicitly listed as an ingredient (garniture de celeri) and appears in the allergen tag, so anyone allergic to celery should avoid this product.

Can this product be considered suitable for a vegan, gluten-free diet?

The mix is fully plant-based and labeled vegan, making it suitable for a vegan diet, but the traces tags indicate possible gluten and soy presence, so it cannot be guaranteed gluten-free and may not be appropriate for those with celiac disease or soy allergy.
