Fonzies

Fonzies are a puffed snack made primarily from corn grits and flavored with cheese and whey powders, placing them in the Cereals and Potatoes food group. The product carries a Nutri-Score of E and belongs to NOVA group 4, indicating an ultra‑processed formulation with high fat (35 g), saturated fat (4.7 g) and moderate salt (1.8 g) per 100 g, while sugars remain relatively low at 4.8 g. Although it offers a source of protein (7.8 g) and some fiber (1.9 g), the elevated fat and additive content, including flavor enhancers E621, E627 and E631, make it a less nutritious choice for regular consumption.
