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.

Ultra-processed food cannot be rated Good. A factory recipe is a treat, not a habit.
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.
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.
Mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids
-5May contain residual processing contaminants. Nutritional quality is low.
Monosodium glutamate
-5Flavour enhancer. Safe for most; a subset reports sensitivity.
Natural flavouring
-5Undisclosed mixture. Usually low toxicological risk, poor transparency.
Disodium guanylate
-5Flavour enhancer stacked with MSG.
Disodium inosinate
-5Flavour enhancer stacked with MSG.
Factory flavour system
-12MSG stacked with inosinate or guanylate is a lab flavour, not a kitchen one. It is how a chip tastes like cheese without much cheese.
A long list of extras
-85 additives sit on this pack. One extra is a recipe. Four is a factory pattern.
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

Sugar
Low concernNot a toxin. A teaspoon is a teaspoon. The issue is how many hide in drinks and breakfast.
Mono- and diglycerides of fatty acidsE471
−5Not a high-concern extra. A sign the recipe needed help staying together.
Monosodium glutamateE621
−5Safe for most. A few people report a reaction; most do not.
Natural flavouring
−5Not a toxin. A sign the recipe needed a perfume. You cannot tell what is inside from the words.
Disodium guanylateE627
−5Flavour enhancer stacked with MSG.
Disodium inosinateE631
−5Flavour enhancer stacked with MSG.
Potato
No concernA keep. The oil and salt around them are the score.
Corn
No concernStaple grain. Fine as food; the extras around it usually decide the score.
Rice
No concernStaple grain. Whole grain is the better neighbour of white rice.
Salt
No concernThe nutrition box already scores it. A pinch in cooking is not a packet of noodles.
Mustard
No concernA labelled allergen.
Spice extract
No concernUsually fine. Celery extracts can matter for celery allergy.
