Product Insights
Pois chiches is a 400 g canned chickpea product from Carrefour, made in Italy and packaged in a metal box. It belongs to the PNNS groups "Cereals and potatoes" and "Legumes", carries a Nutri‑Score of A and is classified in NOVA group 3, reflecting a processed yet relatively simple ingredient list of chickpeas, water, salt and the antioxidant ascorbic acid (E300). While it offers high protein (≈6.9 g) and fiber (≈6.1 g) with low sugar and modest salt, the added salt and processing step mean it is not a whole‑food equivalent and should be consumed mindfully.
