Biscotte

Biscotte is a wholemeal rusk snack marketed under the Bio Village brand, falling under the cereals and potatoes > breads category (PNNS groups: Cereals and potatoes, Bread). Nutritionally it delivers 13 g of protein and 6.2 g of fiber per 100 g with low sugar (3 g) and low salt (0.03 g), earning a Nutri-Score A (-3 points), but its fat content is moderate and the product is classified as ultra-processed (NOVA 4) due to the presence of an additive (ascorbic acid, E300) and refined processing. It contains wheat and gluten, making it unsuitable for gluten-intolerant consumers, while its organic ingredients and lack of added sugar are positives, the processing level and additive may be a concern for those avoiding highly processed foods.
