Plain breadsticks are a baked cereal product, usually made from wheat flour and formed into dry, crisp sticks. They mainly provide carbohydrate, with some protein and fat. Per 100g, they contain 73g of carbohydrate, 11g of protein, 8.1g of fat and 2g of salt.

Carbohydrate provides energy, while protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues. The salt content is worth noting for people monitoring their salt intake. Saturated fat accounts for most of the fat in these breadsticks, which may also be relevant to people watching their saturated fat intake. Full nutrient figures are shown in the tables below.
