What pulled it down
A weak nutrition box cannot be rated Good
Sugars, salt or saturated fat dominate this box. Poor at best — a treat, not a habit.
Processing sets a ceiling
This is simply processed food. Fine often. Not a keep unless the rest of the pack is honest.
Two red lights on the box cannot be rated Good
Two red lights on salt, sugar or saturated fat keep this at Poor, not Good.
A weak nutrition box
About 14.2 teaspoons of sugar in 100 g. Salt is high. Sugars, salt or saturated fat dominate.
What held it up
A quiet ingredient list
No high- or moderate-concern additives. The extras, if any, are pantry-familiar.
Also worth knowing
Simply made
Made with a few extra steps. Still recognisable as food.
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

Ingredients
Soy sauce (water, soybeans, wheat, salt), Cane sugar, Mirin (water, rice, koji seed, sea salt), Tomato paste, Organic ginger, Green onion, Organic rice vinegar, Organic garlic, Sea salt, Organic toasted sesame oil
Sugar
Low concernNot a toxin. A teaspoon is a teaspoon. The issue is how many hide in drinks and breakfast.
Tomato
No concernA keep. Ketchup adds sugar; passata does not.
Salt
No concernThe nutrition box already scores it. A pinch in cooking is not a packet of noodles.
