Product Insights
Caramelized Onion is a 190 g jar of sweetened, cooked onions sold under the Hacendado label at Mercadona and belongs to the vegetables group in the PNNS classification. It carries a Nutri‑Score of D (score 11) and falls into the ultra‑processed NOVA 4 category, reflecting its high levels of added sugar (17.7 g), fat (4 g) and salt (1.08 g per 100 g) which exceed typical vegetable averages. While it provides a modest 0.8 g of protein and no dietary fiber, its elevated calorie density (127 kcal/100 g) makes it best used sparingly as a flavoring rather than a staple food.
