What You Should Know

You'd spot this single-serve bag in the snack or specialty cheese aisle, grabbed for a portable savory bite before a movie or to toss into a lunchbox. It gives off a crunchy, protein-forward "healthy indulgent" vibe — rich Parmesan flavor with nutty seed texture. The short ingredient list and likely bake/dehydrate crisping point to simple processing from real foods rather than industrial formulations, so it behaves like a processed cheese-based snack (NOVA 3) rather than an ultra-processed product.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

Made from cheese and whole seeds with no emulsifiers, preservatives, or long ingredient lists; the product is transformed (baked/dehydrated and packaged) into a shelf-stable snack, consistent with NOVA 3 processed foods rather than NOVA 4 ultra-processed formulations.
