CleanPlate scores it [R]ED3. The E for nutrition is low: almost no credited protein, fibre or micronutrients per 100 g. The D for ingredients reflects a mix of whole and refined ingredients (led by milk solids, sugar and strawberry fruit preparation), with additives that cost points: carrageenan, carboxymethyl cellulose, flavouring and Ponceau 4R. A red flag (erythrosine E127) cuts the score by 40%. The 3 for risk comes mainly from free sugar (20 g per 100 g) and saturated fat (6.42 g per 100 g).
