Allégé (15,5 % MG) - European Score 100/100

European Score analysis

This reduced-fat uncooked pressed cheese, sold under the Les Mousquetaires and Pâturages banners, reaches a European Score of 100. The breakdown is anchored by full marks on the structural dimensions: company headquarters and manufacturing each score 35, reflecting French ownership and production in Brittany, while distribution adds the full 15 and proximity contributes 5.

Ingredients reach the maximum 10, indicating raw materials drawn from within the European Union. Certifications, however, sit at 0; the pack carries a nutritional claim about calcium but no organic or protected-origin scheme, leaving this potential source of extra credit untapped. The clearly identified French production site reinforces the domestic character of the cheese even without formal certification.

Within its category the product sits in the percentile of 61, outscoring 61% of the 625 products grouped under uncooked pressed cheeses. That above-average placement reflects solid European provenance in a sizeable and competitive field. For a shopper weighing European origin, the cheese offers dependable domestic ownership, domestic manufacturing and EU-sourced ingredients; the absence of any certification is the single clear avenue through which it might have ranked higher still among its many rivals.
