Why does this product receive a Nutri‑Score of A despite its high fat content?

Nutri‑Score balances negative factors (energy, saturated fat, sugar, salt) against positives such as protein, fiber, and low sugar. The snack’s very high protein (26 g) and fiber (8.5 g) together with low sugar (5 g) and modest salt (0.8 g) outweigh the high total fat, resulting in an overall A rating.

How does the 0.8 g of salt per 100 g in this snack affect a hypertensive diet?

0.8 g of salt equals about 320 mg of sodium, which is well below the recommended daily limit of 5 g of salt for adults, so the snack can fit into a controlled‑salt diet, though portion size should still be managed.

Are peanuts in this snack a risk for people with peanut allergy?

Yes, the product is composed of 94.6 % roasted peanuts and is clearly labeled with a peanut allergen warning, making it unsuitable for anyone who is allergic to peanuts.
