Pesto
Product Insights
Pesto is a ready‑to‑use basil sauce intended for pasta, classified in the Fat and sauces and Dressings and sauces groups. It delivers a very high fat content (62 g/100 g), especially saturated fat (9.1 g), a high salt level (2.1 g) and virtually no sugar, resulting in a Nutri‑Score of E and a NOVA group 3 indicating a processed product. The formula is gluten‑free and uses DOP basil, but it contains egg‑derived lysozyme, milk from cheese, cashew nuts, and additives E202, E270 and E300, which may be concerns for allergic or clean‑eating consumers.
