Brown sauce
Product Insights
Brown sauce is a condiment classified under the PNNS groups “Fat and sauces” and “Dressings and sauces,” commonly used to add flavor to meats and sandwiches. It delivers virtually no fat and low salt, but its sugar content is exceptionally high at 38 g per 100 g, giving it a Nutri‑Score of D and placing it in NOVA group 3, indicating a processed culinary ingredient. The formulation includes sorbic acid as a preservative and barley‑derived malt vinegar, so it is not suitable for gluten‑free diets and may concern those avoiding additives.
