Vanilla Custard Powder

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 3 ingredients to avoid

Brown & Polson Vanilla Custard Powder scores 5/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Brown & Polson Vanilla Custard Powder lists 5 ingredients, starting with Maize Starch, Iodised Salt, Tartrazine, Sunset Yellow Fcf and Nature-identical Flavouring Substance. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 5/100 Brown & Polson Vanilla Custard Powder scores worse than most pasta & cooking sauces we have scored. A higher-scoring option in pasta & cooking sauces is Simply Nature Organic Tomato & Basil Pasta Sauce at 100/100.
