Ultra-processed — built with extras a kitchen wouldn’t use. Better as a rare treat, not a Good rating.
Better than most of Vitamins — 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 Vitamins — 17 of 25 sit at or below this number.

The extras on the list set the limit. A high-concern ingredient, or a cluster of them, blocks a better rating.
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.
Stacked sweeteners cannot be rated Good
A cluster of extras keeps this at Poor: a sometimes product, not a 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.
Natural flavouring
-5Undisclosed mixture. Usually low toxicological risk, poor transparency.
Carboxymethyl cellulose
-5Emulsifier. Some evidence of gut-mucosa effects at high dose.
Sucralose
-5Chlorinated sweetener. Heat-degradation products are a concern in baking.
Acesulfame K
-14Intense sweetener. Limited long-term data; gut microbiome questions.
Potassium phosphates
-5Phosphate in processed cheese and drinks. We count the family.
A long list of extras
-85 additives sit on this pack. One extra is a recipe. Four is a factory pattern.
Stacked intense sweeteners
-10Two or more intense sweeteners in one product is a diet-drink pattern, not a quiet recipe.
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

Acesulfame KE950
−14Long-term questions linger. Fine as a rare diet drink, not as a personality.
Natural flavouring
−5Not a toxin. A sign the recipe needed a perfume. You cannot tell what is inside from the words.
Carboxymethyl celluloseE466
−5Some research flags gut effects at high doses. A sometimes extra.
SucraloseE955
−5Holds up in the bottle; less lovely when baked hot. Gut questions exist at high doses.
Potassium phosphatesE340
−5Phosphate in processed cheese and drinks. We count the family.
Retinyl palmitate
Low concernVitamin A ester. Extra sun care; skip high leave-on in pregnancy.
Sunflower oil
No concernA reasonable everyday oil. Not as interesting as olive, calmer than palm.
Soy
No concernEU major allergen. Protein source; isolate and concentrate are factory ingredients.
CelluloseE460
No concernFibre filler. Harmless.
Salt
No concernThe nutrition box already scores it. A pinch in cooking is not a packet of noodles.
Sodium ascorbateE301
No concernLow concern. Often sits next to nitrite, which is the real story.
Niacinamide
No concernA keep at modest percentages. Too much can flush some faces.
RiboflavinE101
No concernVitamin B2 used as a yellow colour.
