Why is Riz au lait rhum raisins classified as ultra-processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product combines refined ingredients such as added sugar, corn and rice starches, flavorings, and a stabiliser (pectins, listed as E440), which are characteristic of ultra‑processed foods; the presence of processed dairy, rum, and multiple additives pushes it into NOVA group 4.

How does the high sugar content in this product affect people with diabetes or those monitoring blood glucose?

With 15 g of sugars per 100 g, the pudding can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes, so individuals with diabetes or those on low‑sugar diets should consume it sparingly and consider the overall carbohydrate load of their meals.

Is this rice pudding suitable for a gluten‑free diet or for consumers avoiding alcohol?

The label notes traces of gluten, so it cannot be considered gluten‑free, and it contains about 0.4 % alcohol from rum, making it unsuitable for strict alcohol abstainers.
