Product Insights
Pesto Rosso is a vegan red‑pesto sauce classified under the “Fat and sauces” PNNS group and marketed as a condiment. It carries a Nutri‑Score of E and falls into the ultra‑processed NOVA 4 category, reflecting its high fat content (39 g per 100 g) and notable salt level (3 g per 100 g) despite a modest sugar amount. While it provides a plant‑based alternative to dairy‑based pestos, its nutritional profile is less favorable due to the elevated fat and salt, making it best used sparingly as a flavor enhancer.
