Why is Croq' soja a la provencale classified as ultra-processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

It falls into a high-processing category because the tofu is coagulated with calcium sulfate and the mixture is shaped and flavored, but the ingredient list shows zero added food additives - only water, soy, calcium sulfate, nigari, vegetables and spices.

How does the sugar/salt content in this product affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With 2 g of sugar and 1.2 g of salt per 100 g, the patty offers a modest sugar level that can fit into a diabetic meal plan if portioned, while the salt amount is lower than the average for meat alternatives but still requires monitoring for people with hypertension.

Is the soy in this product a concern for people with soy allergy or for sustainability?

Soy is the main ingredient (about 78% of the patty) and is therefore a major allergen for soy-sensitive individuals, but it is sourced from French organic, non-GMO farms, making it a sustainable choice compared with conventional soy.
