Strong nutrition · Ultra-processed · per 100 g
Ultra-processed — built with extras a kitchen wouldn’t use. Better as a rare treat, not a Good rating.
Better than most of Vitamins — 17 of 25 sit at or below this number.
Council note
Titanium dioxide is a high-concern extra. That is enough to keep this off an everyday list.

The extras on the list set the limit. A high-concern ingredient, or a cluster of them, blocks a better rating.
What pulled it down
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 high-concern extra blocks a Good rating
A cluster of extras keeps this at Poor: a sometimes product, not a habit.
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.
Calcium phosphates
-5Anti-caking and a calcium salt in tablets and cheese.
Titanium dioxide
-28Whitener. Banned as a food additive in the EU. Genotoxicity concerns at the nanoparticle size used in food.
Carmine
-5Insect-derived colour. Allergen reports exist; not vegan.
What held it up
A strong nutrition box
No meaningful sugar. This is a strong everyday box.
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
