Nuggets de pollo
Product Insights
Nuggets de pollo are breaded chicken nuggets sold by Mercadona and belong to the poultry food group. They offer a decent amount of protein (10.4 g) and fiber (0.8 g) per 100 g, with low sugars (2.1 g) and a salt level (1.08 g) that is below the average for similar processed meats, earning a Nutri‑Score of C. However, they are classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4), contain a relatively high total fat content (13.4 g), include gluten from wheat flour and three food additives such as E‑450i and E‑500i, which may be concerns for health‑focused consumers.
