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 Meat & deli — 15 of 24 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.
Hydroxypropyl distarch phosphate
-5Modified starch in sauces and frozen meals. A UPF tell.
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
