Council note
Ultra-processed — flavours, extras, a list a kitchen would not write. A dietitian would not make this a weekday habit. Middle of Snacks. 31 of 62 on our shelves score higher.

What pulled it down
This nutrition box cannot be rated Excellent
This is a treat pattern. It can only scrape into low Good if the list is clean and it is not ultra-processed.
Ultra-processed food cannot be rated Good
A factory recipe — flavours, colours, or many additives — cannot be rated Good. A sometimes treat, not a daily habit.
A weak-ish nutrition box
Sugars are modest. Salt is moderate. Fat is high. A treat pattern.
Ultra-processed
Built in a factory with additives, flavours, or refined extras. A growing pile of research ties a diet of these to poorer health — not because one biscuit is poison, but because the pattern crowds out real food.
Mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids
-5May contain residual processing contaminants. Nutritional quality is low.
Nutrition is half the number. Ingredients a quarter. How processed a fifth. Organic is a small bonus — it cannot rescue a sugary drink or a nitrite ham. How this compares to Nutri-Score

−5Not a high-concern extra. A sign the recipe needed help staying together.
Potato
No concernA keep. The oil and salt around them are the score.
Sunflower oil
No concernA reasonable everyday oil. Not as interesting as olive, calmer than palm.
Wheat flour
No concernContains gluten. Otherwise a staple.
Salt
No concernThe nutrition box already scores it. A pinch in cooking is not a packet of noodles.
