Low 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 Condiments — 25 of 33 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 Condiments — 25 of 33 sit at or below this number.

What pulled it down
This nutrition box cannot be rated Excellent
This is a treat pattern. It can only scrape into low Good if the list is clean and it is not ultra-processed.
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 weak-ish nutrition box
Sugars are modest. Salt is high. Fat is high. A treat pattern.
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
