Question 1

Why is Emmental Grated Fondant classified as ultra-processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

Accepted Answer

It is considered ultra-processed because it undergoes industrial steps such as pasteurisation, grinding, drying and the addition of functional ingredients like microbial coagulant, lactic ferment cultures and salt; however the ingredient list shows no artificial additives, so the ultra-processed label stems from the processing level rather than added additives.

Question 2

How does the high saturated-fat and moderate salt content of this cheese affect someone with high cholesterol or hypertension?

Accepted Answer

The 20 g of saturated fat per 100 g can raise LDL cholesterol when consumed in excess, and the 0.7 g of salt, although lower than many cheeses, still contributes to daily sodium intake, so individuals with high cholesterol or high blood pressure should limit portion size and balance it with lower-fat, low-sodium foods.

Question 3

Is the milk in Emmental Grated Fondant a concern for people with lactose intolerance or a milk allergy?

Accepted Answer

The product is made from partially skimmed cow's milk and contains milk proteins, so it is unsuitable for those with a milk allergy; people with lactose intolerance may tolerate it better than fresh milk because most of the lactose is reduced during cheese maturation, but sensitivity varies and caution is advised.
