Hellmann's Cheezy Jalapeno Burst Mayonnaise

Hellmann's Cheezy Jalapeno Burst Mayonnaise is an 85 g pack made from water, soybean oil, an 8% cheese seasoning (maltodextrin, cheese powder 1%, whey powder and more), sugar, diced jalapeno (3%), three thickeners and a preservative. The panel is printed per 100 g with a 15 g serve.

CleanPlate scores it [L]EC4. The E for nutrition is low: almost no credited protein, fibre or micronutrients per 100 g. The C for ingredients reflects mostly refined or industrial ingredients (led by refined soybean oil, maltodextrin and dehydrated vegetables), with additives that cost points: flavouring, hydroxypropyl distarch phosphate, starch sodium octenyl succinate and guar gum. The [L] marks a hollow label promise: cheese is named on the pack but makes up only 1% of the product. The 4 for risk comes mainly from sodium (737 mg per 100 g) and saturated fat (5 g per 100 g).
