Why is the Spreadable based on fresh cheese and Greek yogurt with chives and shallots classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product combines multiple processed dairy components, starch, flavorings and preservatives, which pushes it into the NOVA 4 category for ultra‑processed foods. It contains two listed additives: E270 (lactic acid) used as an acidifier and E202 (potassium sorbate) used as a preservative.

How does the sugar content of this spread affect a diabetic diet?

With 3.4 g of sugars per 100 g, the spread adds a modest amount of carbohydrate that can raise blood glucose levels. People managing diabetes should count these sugars within their daily allowance and may prefer lower‑sugar alternatives if strict glycemic control is required.

Is the milk in this spread a concern for people with dairy allergies?

Yes. The ingredient list includes fresh cheese, Greek yogurt and milk proteins, all derived from cow's milk, which is a declared allergen. Anyone with a dairy allergy should avoid this product.
