Product Insights
Cheetos Crunchos are a salty snack made primarily from corn flour and flavored with a rapeseed‑based cheese and ham mixture, placing them in the “Salty snacks” and “Appetizers” groups. The product carries a Nutri‑Score of D and is classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4), reflecting its high fat (24 g), moderate saturated fat (2.1 g), and elevated salt (1.6 g) per 100 g. While it provides a modest 6.1 g of protein and 4.8 g of sugar, the presence of several additives (E621, E627, E631, E160c) and gluten and peanut traces make it less suitable for restrictive diets.
