Why does this cassoulet have a Nutri-Score of C despite its high protein content?

The Nutri-Score algorithm penalises high levels of fat, saturated fat and salt, and rewards fibre and fruit/vegetable percentages; the cassoulet’s 9 g fat, 3 g saturated fat and 1 g salt per 100 g outweigh its 12 g protein and low sugar, resulting in a C rating.

Is this duck cassoulet suitable for vegan, vegetarian, or halal diets?

No; the recipe contains duck meat, pork fat, pork casings and other animal-derived ingredients, making it unsuitable for vegan, vegetarian or halal consumers.

How might the fat and salt levels in this product affect people with cardiovascular concerns?

The relatively high saturated fat and moderate salt content can raise LDL cholesterol and blood pressure, so individuals with heart disease or hypertension should consume it only occasionally and balance it with lower‑fat, low‑salt foods.
