Ground corn treated with lime, water, vegetable oils (contains one or more of the following: cottonseed oil, corn oil, palm oil), salt, artificial coloring (fd&c yellow #5, fd&c red #40).
Food score panel
Each dimension stays separate so the product can score well in one area and weakly in another without hiding trade-offs.

How is the score built?
Open the methodology note
Nutrition score measures nutrient profile only. Processing, environment, label quality, and data confidence stay separate so missing data or formulation signals do not silently change nutrition quality.
The data is broad and consistent. The interpretation is likely to remain stable.
Score drivers
Supports the assessment
No clear positive highlights emerged from the available data.
Impact: low
Pulls the score down
Declared NOVA group 4 anchors the processing indicator.
Impact: high
Mandatory field coverage is only partial (63%).
Impact: medium
A long ingredient list (14 ingredients) supports a more processed classification.
Impact: low
Uncertain area
Core nutrient evidence is incomplete, so the nutrition score is unavailable.
Impact: high
Confidence is reduced by missing nutrition evidence.
Impact: high
The record is missing a nutrition panel.

NOVA 4 viitab ulatuslikule tööstuslikule töötlemisele ja suuremale formulatsiooni keerukusele.
Kohe
Võib soodustada ülesöömist, sest maitse- ja tekstuuriprofiil on sageli väga stimuleeriv.
Pikemas vaates
Sage tarbimine seostub kõrgema riskiga ebasoodsatele tervisetulemitele, kuid mõju sõltub toitumismustrist.
Loogika: novaGroup === 4.
Signaalid: NOVA grupp on 4 (ultra-töödeldud klass).
NOVA klass on tarbimismustri signaal ega tähenda üksiku toote põhjal automaatset diagnoosi.
Teatud sünteetilised värvained on seotud tähelepanu-riskisignaaliga, eriti laste kontekstis.
Kohe
Mõnel lapsel võib esineda aktiivsuse või tähelepanu muutust.
Pikemas vaates
Tõendus on kontekstipõhine; signaal aitab hinnata koostise profiili ega tähenda automaatselt kahjulikku toimet kõigile.
Loogika: Koostises või additiivides leidub E102, E104, E110, E122, E124, E129 (vajadusel koos E211).
Signaalid: Leitud sünteetiliste värvainete koodid: E102, E129.
See on ettevaatlik kontekstisignaal. Mõju sõltub tundlikkusest, kogusest ja üldisest toitumismustrist.
Ultra-töödeldud märge aitab vanemal hinnata, kas toode sobib igapäevaseks valikuks või pigem harvemaks.
Miks oluline
Rakendus kuvab selle lisakontekstina, et toetada lapse menüü üldist kvaliteeti, mitte anda mustvalget otsust ühe toote kohta.
Kohe
Võib tekkida kiire söömise ja varasema uue isu muster.
Pikemas vaates
Sage kasutus võib nihutada menüüd vähem täisväärtusliku toiduprofiili poole.
Põhineb peamiselt epidemioloogilisel ja institutsionaalsel kirjandusel ultra-töödeldud toitude tarbimismustrite kohta.
Signaalid: NOVA grupp on 4 (ultra-töödeldud profiil).
Teatud sünteetilised värvained ja tähelepanu kontekst
B-kiht: ettevaatlikkuse signaalKontekstisignaalVärvainete signaal tähendab, et tootes on lisandeid, mida osa vanemaid soovib laste puhul teadlikult piirata.
