Why is Macédoine classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product combines many industrial ingredients such as canola oil, vinegar, mustard, egg powder and a formulated dressing that includes the emulsifier mono‑ and diglycerides (E471) and thickener xanthan gum (E415); these processed components place it in the ultra‑processed NOVA 4 category.

How does the sugar and salt content in this product affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With only 2 g of sugars per 100 g, the product is low‑sugar and generally safe for diabetics, but the 1 g of salt per 100 g can contribute significantly to the recommended daily limit of 5 g, so portion control is important for people managing hypertension.

Is the egg powder in this product a concern for individuals with egg allergies?

Yes, the product contains whole egg powder, which is a known allergen; anyone with an egg allergy should avoid it, and the label also notes possible cross‑contamination with other allergens.
