Okay nutrition · Ultra-processed · per 100 ml
Ultra-processed — built with extras a kitchen wouldn’t use. Better as a rare treat, not a Good rating.
Better than most of Protein — 17 of 25 sit at or below this number.
Council note
Ultra-processed — flavours, extras, a list a kitchen would not write. A dietitian would not make this a weekday habit. Better than most of Protein — 17 of 25 sit at or below this number.

Ultra-processed food cannot be rated Good. A factory recipe is a treat, not a habit.
What pulled it down
Okay nutrition cannot be rated Excellent
The box is middling. That is fine as a sometimes food. It is not everyday Excellent.
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.
An okay nutrition box
Sugars are modest. Middling — fine sometimes.
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.
Carrageenan
-14Degraded carrageenan is inflammatory in animal studies. Debate continues.
Sucralose
-5Chlorinated sweetener. Heat-degradation products are a concern in baking.
Natural flavouring
-5Undisclosed mixture. Usually low toxicological risk, poor transparency.
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

CarrageenanE407
−14Some people find it rough on the gut. Debate continues; we treat it as worth watching.
Sugar
Low concernNot a toxin. A teaspoon is a teaspoon. The issue is how many hide in drinks and breakfast.
SucraloseE955
−5Holds up in the bottle; less lovely when baked hot. Gut questions exist at high doses.
Natural flavouring
−5Not a toxin. A sign the recipe needed a perfume. You cannot tell what is inside from the words.
Milk
No concernA staple for people who digest it. An allergen for people who don’t.
