Which nutrients cause Sables au beurre, amandes et citron to receive a Nutri-Score of E?

The Nutri-Score E is driven by the very high sugar (25 g per 100 g) and saturated fat (12 g per 100 g) together with low protein and low fiber, which generate a high negative points total that outweighs the few positive points.

How does the sugar and salt content of Sables au beurre, amandes et citron affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With 25 g of sugar per 100 g, the cookies can cause rapid blood-glucose spikes and are generally unsuitable for a diabetic diet, while the 0.35 g of salt per 100 g is relatively low and unlikely to worsen hypertension on its own, but the overall high calorie and fat content still make it a less-ideal choice for heart-healthy eating.

Is the almond content in Sables au beurre, amandes et citron a concern for people with nut allergies?

Yes - the product contains 8.5% almonds, a tree nut, and it is labeled with nut allergens, so anyone allergic to nuts should avoid it.

Product Insights

Sables au beurre, amandes et citron are organic shortbread cookies made with wheat flour, butter, almond pieces and lemon flavor, sold in 200 g plastic-bag and cardboard sleeve packs. They belong to the Sugary Snacks sub-category of the PNNS groups (Sugary snacks / Biscuits and cakes) and carry a Nutri-Score of E, reflecting high sugar (25 g per 100 g), high saturated fat (12 g per 100 g) and modest fiber (2.5 g per 100 g). While the organic certification and almonds add some natural nutrients, the product’s high sugar, saturated fat and the presence of gluten, milk and nut allergens make it unsuitable for low-sugar, low-fat or allergen-free diets.
