Why is Velouté Poireaux Pommes de Terre classified in NOVA group 3 and which ingredients determine this level of processing?

The soup is placed in NOVA group 3 because it combines multiple whole‑food ingredients that are cooked and blended, includes added oils and an almond‑based cream, and undergoes industrial processing without the extensive additives that define NOVA group 4.

How does the sugar and salt content of this soup affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With only 1.3 g of sugar per 100 g, the soup is low‑glycaemic and suitable for diabetic meal planning, but its 0.52 g of salt per 100 g, although lower than many soups, should be monitored by people with hypertension.

Is this soup suitable for a vegan, gluten‑free, or nut‑allergic diet?

The product is fully vegan and generally gluten‑free, but it contains almond powder, so it is not safe for individuals with nut allergies, and trace gluten may be present according to the label.

Product Insights

Velouté Poireaux Pommes de Terre is an organic, plant‑based cream soup made from leeks, potatoes, other vegetables and an almond‑based cream, sold in a 1 L recyclable carton. It carries a Nutri‑Score of B and belongs to NOVA group 3, offering low fat (1.6 g), low sugars (1.3 g) and modest salt (0.52 g) per 100 g, which makes it lighter than the average soup in its category. However, it provides relatively little protein (0.9 g) and dietary fibre (1.1 g) and contains potential allergens such as celery and nuts, so it may not meet high‑protein needs or be suitable for those with these allergies.
