Why is Noix de Cajou - Grillées et Salées classified as a NOVA 3 product and does it contain any additives?

The snack is considered NOVA 3 because the cashews are roasted and salted, which involves processing but no extensive formulation; its ingredient list includes only cashews, sunflower oil and salt, and the product has zero listed additives.

How does the sugar and salt content of this roasted salted cashew snack affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With 6 g of sugars per 100 g, the snack provides a moderate carbohydrate load that can raise blood glucose, so people with diabetes should watch portion size; the salt level is 0.82 g per 100 g, far below the average for salty snacks, making it less of a concern for blood pressure but still contributing to total sodium intake.

Are the cashews in this product a concern for people with nut allergies, and is the product suitable for a vegan diet?

Yes, cashews are a tree nut and will trigger reactions in anyone allergic to nuts; the product contains only plant‑based ingredients (cashews, sunflower oil, salt) and is therefore suitable for vegan and vegetarian consumers.
