Weak nutrition · Ultra-processed · per 100 g
Weak nutrition and a factory recipe. Fine as a rare treat — not as a habit.
Worse than 9 in 10 packs in Condiments. The swap is on this aisle.
Council note
Ultra-processed — flavours, extras, a list a kitchen would not write. The colour (Tartrazine) is cosmetic, not food. A dietitian would not make this a weekday habit. Worse than 9 in 10 packs in Condiments. The swap is on this aisle.

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.
A cluster of extras blocks Excellent or Good
A cluster of extras keeps this at Poor: a sometimes product, not a habit.
A weak nutrition box
No meaningful sugar. Salt 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.
Annatto
-5Natural orange colour. Occasional allergy.
Monosodium glutamate
-5Flavour enhancer. Safe for most; a subset reports sensitivity.
Tartrazine
-14Azo dye linked to hyperactivity in sensitive children. EFSA ADI 7.5 mg/kg.
Allura red AC
-14Widely used azo dye. Hyperactivity concern in children.
Azo dye mix
-82 synthetic colours (the Southampton six family) sit on this pack. Linked to hyperactivity in sensitive children.
A long list of extras
-84 additives sit on this pack. One extra is a recipe. Four is a factory pattern.
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

Monosodium glutamateE621
−5Safe for most. A few people report a reaction; most do not.
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.
