What pulled it down
A weak nutrition box cannot be rated Good
Sugars, salt or saturated fat dominate this box. Poor at best — a treat, not a habit.
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.
Two red lights on the box cannot be rated Good
Two red lights on salt, sugar or saturated fat keep this at Poor, not Good.
A weak nutrition box
About 1.5 teaspoons of sugar in 100 g. Salt is high. Fat is high. Sugars, salt or saturated fat dominate.
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.
Potassium sorbate
-5Common preservative. Rare contact allergy; generally accepted.
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

Ingredients
Vegetable oil, water, sugar, salt, egg yolk, vinegar, xanthan gum, modified food starch, monosodium glutamate.
Sunflower oil
No concernA reasonable everyday oil. Not as interesting as olive, calmer than palm.
Xanthan gumE415
No concernWell tolerated except in very high doses.
Potassium sorbateE202
−5Rare contact allergy. Otherwise a quiet extra.
Citric acidE330
No concernNo health concern at usual levels.
Salt
No concernThe nutrition box already scores it. A pinch in cooking is not a packet of noodles.
Spice extract
No concernUsually fine. Celery extracts can matter for celery allergy.
