Is Squares OK for gout?
Across Squares by Ferrero’s 13 ingredients, the gout catch is a heavy sugar load — 41.9 g per 100 g, which itself nudges uric acid up. Fine occasionally, in a small portion rather than every day — 50/100.

What we found on the label
- No high-fructose syrup, agave or honey is listed; compare total sugar per serving.
- No yeast extract, meat/fish extract, or anchovy — the purine sources that hide in savory packaged foods.
- Fiber — 3.2 g per 100 g, which slows sugar absorption.
- Protein — 9.7 g per 100 g.
Worth knowing
- High total sugar — 41.9 g per 100 g; a heavy sugar load itself adds to uric acid, so keep the portion small.
