Why is Cookies coco-pépites classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The cookies contain refined wheat flour, added sugars, vegetable fat and chocolate chips, all of which are industrially processed ingredients; the label also lists several food additives such as emulsifier lecithins (E322), diphosphates as raising agents (E450), mono‑ and diglycerides of fatty acids (E471) and sodium carbonate (E500), which together qualify the product for a NOVA 4 rating.

How does the sugar and salt content in Cookies coco-pépites affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With 28 g of sugar per 100 g, the cookies can cause a rapid increase in blood glucose, making them unsuitable for strict diabetic meal plans; the salt level of 1.1 g per 100 g is moderate and below the average for similar snacks, but it still contributes to overall sodium intake and should be limited for people managing hypertension.

Is the chocolate‑chip ingredient in Cookies coco-pépites a concern for palm‑oil sustainability?

The chocolate chips are composed of cocoa paste, cocoa butter, sugar and a small amount of sunflower‑derived lecithin, and the product is explicitly labelled as containing no palm oil, so the chocolate component does not raise palm‑oil sustainability concerns.
