Coleslaw

Coleslaw is a pre‑packed, ready‑to‑eat salad made from white cabbage (50 %) and carrot (24 %) and is classified as a composite food in the One‑dish meals PNNS group. It bears a Nutri‑Score of C and is assigned to NOVA 4, containing moderate sugar (5.5 g per 100 g), low salt (1.1 g per 100 g), low saturated fat (0.6 g per 100 g), 0.8 g protein and 2.2 g fiber, but also includes additives such as the preservative E202 and xanthan gum, and an egg‑yolk ingredient that makes it non‑vegan and a potential allergen. Thus, while it provides a fresh vegetable base, its ultra‑processed nature and additive list limit its suitability for clean‑eating or allergen‑free diets.
