Why does this cookie receive a Nutri‑Score of E and which nutrients are responsible for the low rating?

The Nutri‑Score is driven by the very high sugar (34 g) and saturated‑fat (12 g) levels, which generate the maximum negative points, while the product contributes no fiber or fruit‑vegetable content, giving it zero positive points and resulting in a grade of E.

How does the high sugar and saturated‑fat content in these cookies affect people with diabetes or heart disease?

The large amount of sugar can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes, making the cookies unsuitable for diabetic diets, and the elevated saturated‑fat contributes to higher LDL cholesterol, which may increase cardiovascular risk for people with heart conditions.

Can consumers following a vegan or gluten‑free diet eat these cookies?

No. The formulation includes eggs, milk and wheat flour containing gluten, so it does not meet vegan or gluten‑free standards.
