Council note
Ultra-processed — flavours, extras, a list a kitchen would not write. A dietitian would not make this a weekday habit. Worse than 9 in 10 packs in Pantry. The swap is on this aisle.

What pulled it down
A weak nutrition box cannot be rated Good
Sugars, salt or saturated fat dominate this box. Poor at best — a treat, not a habit.
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.
Two red lights on the box cannot be rated Good
Two red lights on salt, sugar or saturated fat keep this at Poor, not Good.
A weak nutrition box
About 14.3 teaspoons of sugar in 100 g. Fat is high. Some fibre helps. Sugars, salt or saturated fat dominate.
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.
Palm oil
-8High in saturated fat. Process contaminants (3-MCPD, glycidyl esters) in refined oils.
Glucose-fructose syrup
-6Metabolic load similar to sugar. Scored via the nutrition panel.
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.
Palm oil
−8High in saturated fat. The other cost is landscape. A daily chocolate spread is both stories at once.
Glucose-fructose syrup
−6Your body treats it much like sugar. The nutrition box already counts it.
Milk
No concernA staple for people who digest it. An allergen for people who don’t.
LecithinE322
No concernGenerally fine. Soy lecithin can matter if you are highly soy-allergic.
Vanilla
No concernLow concern. Real pod vs vanillin is a taste argument.
Cocoa
No concernA keep. Fat content varies; the bar’s sugar is the usual snag.
Wheat flour
No concernContains gluten. Otherwise a staple.
Corn
No concernStaple grain. Fine as food; the extras around it usually decide the score.
Sodium carbonatesE500
No concernNo toxicological concern. It’s the cupboard jar.
