Fromage fondu pour croque-monsieur

This melted cheese designed for croque-monsieur belongs to the Milk and dairy products family, specifically cheese. It carries a Nutri‑Score of E and falls into the ultra‑processed NOVA 4 category, reflecting its high levels of added salt (23.6 g per 100 g) and moderate sugars (6 g) alongside a solid protein content (14 g). While it delivers calcium‑rich dairy and convenient meltability, the product is high in sodium and saturated fat (13 g) and contains several food additives such as emulsifying salts, a preservative, a colourant and carrageenan, which may be concerns for health‑conscious consumers.
