Why is CHICKEN & VEGETABLE SOUP classified as ultra-processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

It is labelled NOVA 4 because it contains refined ingredients such as maltodextrin, yeast extract, added flavouring and the preservative citric acid (E330), which are typical of ultra-processed foods.

Is the milk in this soup a concern for people with dairy allergies?

Yes - the soup includes cream and butter, both derived from milk, and these ingredients are declared allergens on the label.

Is CHICKEN & VEGETABLE SOUP suitable for gluten-free, vegan, keto or other special diets?

The product is certified gluten-free, but it is not vegan because it contains chicken, cream and butter; its carbohydrate level from vegetables and a small amount of sugar makes it unsuitable for strict keto diets, though the low sugar content can fit many low-sugar or balanced dietary plans.
