Why is Queso fresco batido desnatado classified as processed (NOVA 3) and does it contain any additives?

It is labeled NOVA 3 because it is made from pasteurised skimmed cow's milk that has been combined with live lactic cultures, a level of processing that goes beyond basic culinary preparation, and the ingredient list shows zero additives.

Is the cow's milk in Queso fresco batido desnatado a concern for people with milk allergies?

Yes - the primary ingredient is skimmed cow's milk, so anyone with a milk allergy should avoid this product.

What is the best way to store Queso fresco batido desnatado after opening to keep its quality?

Keep the opened container refrigerated at or below 4 C, seal it tightly, use a clean utensil each time, and consume within a few days to prevent spoilage.
