Ultra-processed food cannot be rated Good. A factory recipe is a treat, not a habit.
What pulled it down
The nutrition box sets a limit
The nutrition box is decent, but it is not the whole story.
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.
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.
What held it up
A decent nutrition box
About 2.9 teaspoons of sugar in 100 g. Decent, not a keep on its own.
A quiet ingredient list
No high- or moderate-concern additives. The extras, if any, are pantry-familiar.
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
Yogurt (milk), sugar, dextrose, milk mineral concentrate, flavouring, Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus casei.
Sugar
Low concernNot a toxin. A teaspoon is a teaspoon. The issue is how many hide in drinks and breakfast.
Milk
No concernA staple for people who digest it. An allergen for people who don’t.
Live cultures
No concernA keep. The cultures are the point. Sugar and thickeners are not.
PectinE440
No concernA keep. This is jam-making with a number.
