Why is Grandi girasoti Ricotta épinard mascarpone classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and which specific additives does it contain?

The ravioli is deemed ultra‑processed because it combines refined wheat flour, processed cheeses, starches, bread crumbs and natural flavorings that require multiple industrial steps; however, the ingredient list shows no listed additives beyond natural flavorings, so the product contains essentially zero additives.

Is this ravioli suitable for vegan, keto, halal, or gluten‑free diets?

No, it is not vegan because it contains dairy (ricotta, mozzarella, mascarpone) and eggs; it is not keto due to its high carbohydrate content (26 g per 100 g); halal status is not confirmed as the dairy may not meet halal requirements; and it is not gluten‑free because it includes wheat flour and durum semolina.

Does the ricotta cheese in this product pose a risk for people with a milk allergy?

Yes, ricotta is produced from milk and whey, so it contains milk proteins and is listed as a milk allergen, making the product unsuitable for individuals with a milk allergy.
