What You Should Know

You'd spot this small bag of Parmesan crisps in the snack aisle, near crackers or specialty cheese items, or pulled out as a crunchy topper at a weekend brunch or party. The product reads indulgent and slightly gourmet—salty, savory, and satisfying—and because the ingredient list is only Parmesan cheese (milk, cultures, salt, enzymes), the crisp texture comes from cooked cheese rather than industrial additives, suggesting a processed but not ultra‑processed product.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

The only ingredient is Parmesan cheese, which is a processed dairy product (milk transformed by cultures, salt, and enzymes); the crisping is a physical cooking step rather than addition of industrial formulations, aligning this item with NOVA 3 (processed foods) rather than ultra-processed NOVA 4.
