Carbonara-type pasta sauce is a prepared sauce used with pasta. The figures here describe chilled and ambient products, with ambient products sold without refrigeration before opening. It mainly provides fat, with smaller amounts of protein and carbohydrate. Per 100g, it contains 13g of fat, including 7.7g of saturated fat, 4.9g of protein and 0.85g of salt.
Fat provides energy, while protein supports the maintenance and repair of body tissues. The saturated fat and salt content are points to consider for people monitoring their intake. These figures describe the sauce alone, rather than a complete pasta dish. Full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.
