Why Bazana Premium Roasted Salted 100% California Almonds scores CA3

Adequate nutrient density
- Protein
- 22.5 g
- Fibre
- 12.2 g
- Vitamins and minerals
- None declared
- Energy
- 620 kcal
01 Nutrition density: why C
Protein is 22.5 g per 100 g and fibre is 12.2 g, nearly all from the almonds themselves. A 30 g handful gives about 6.8 g protein and 3.7 g fibre.
No vitamins or minerals are declared on the panel, so the grade rests on protein and fibre alone. That is why it stops at a C despite a short, whole-food list.
Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.

03 Load risk: why 3
Energy is the main driver: 620 kcal per 100 g, about 186 kcal in a 30 g handful. Almonds are half fat by weight, which is what makes them so calorie dense.
Saturated fat is 3.3 g per 100 g, under the 5 g high line, and sodium is 194 mg per 100 g from the added salt. Added sugar is 0 g and trans fat is 0 g, so neither adds to the risk.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.
