It carries a Nutri‑Score of D and is classified as an ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) product, reflecting its high fat (27 g per 100 g) and saturated fat (3.8 g per 100 g) together with modest sugar and protein levels. While it provides a flavorful condiment option, its elevated fat and salt content make it less suitable for low‑fat or sodium‑restricted diets.
