Why is Nems à la crevette et au crabe classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The spring rolls undergo multiple processing steps, including rehydrated vermicelli, a seasoned crab‑shrimp filling, and a separate nuoc‑mâm sauce, which places them in NOVA 4. The label reports zero listed additives, but the formulation includes sulfites, soy (in textured soy flour and soy sauce), wheat flour (in soy sauce) and a small amount of fish sauce, all of which are considered processed ingredients.

How does the sugar and salt content of this product affect diabetic or hypertensive diets?

With 1.5 g of sugar and 0.59 g of salt per 100 g, the nems are low‑sugar and contain moderate salt; they are generally acceptable for diabetic meal planning but should be consumed in moderation by hypertensive individuals, especially when combined with other salty foods.

Based on its ingredients, is this product suitable for vegan, keto, halal or gluten‑free diets?

No, the spring rolls are not vegan because they contain shrimp, crab and fish sauce, and they are not gluten‑free due to wheat flour in the soy sauce. They are not keto‑friendly because the rice flour and vermicelli contribute significant carbs, and they are not halal because of the presence of shrimp, crab and fish ingredients.
