ReAL FOOD RATING
MANDY'S TAKE
“These are marketed as better for you, and the great thing is they don’t contain artificial food colours – they’ve used better quality natural colours. But the rest of the ingredients are still a mix of processed and ultra-processed ingredients. So definitely still stay in my Limit category – no surprises there – but it’s great that the artificial colours are gone.”
