Why does Sablés à la noix de coco receive a Nutri-Score of E and which nutrients drive this low rating?

The Nutri-Score algorithm penalizes high levels of energy, sugars and saturated fat; this cookie provides 521 kcal, 28 g of sugar and 22 g of saturated fat per 100 g, which together generate a high negative point total that outweighs its modest fiber and protein contributions, resulting in an E grade.

How might the sugar and salt content of these cookies affect someone with diabetes or hypertension?

With 28 g of sugar per 100 g, the cookies can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes, making them unsuitable for diabetic control, while the very low salt (0.05 g) is not a concern for hypertension but the overall high calories and saturated fat may still impact cardiovascular health.

Is the wheat flour in this product a problem for people with gluten intolerance?

Yes, the ingredient list includes wheat flour and the allergen label flags gluten, so the cookies are not safe for individuals who must avoid gluten.

Product Insights

Sablés à la noix de coco are organic shortbread cookies made in France, classified in the sugary snacks and biscuits & cakes groups. They carry a Nutri-Score of E and belong to NOVA group 3, reflecting high fat (30 g), saturated fat (22 g) and sugar (28 g) per 100 g, while offering relatively low salt (0.05 g) and a modest amount of fiber (4.5 g). The presence of wheat flour and butter makes the product unsuitable for gluten‑free or vegan diets, and the added sugars and saturated fats contribute to its lower nutritional rating despite the organic label.
