Common questions

Is Nesquik healthy?

Nesquik 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.

What is in Nesquik?

Nesquik lists 20 ingredients, starting with Wheat Flour, Sugar, Corn Meal, Glucose Syrup and Low Fat Cocoa Powder. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

How many calories are in Nesquik?

369 kcal per 100g. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores Nesquik on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.

Does Nesquik contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Nesquik’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".

How processed is Nesquik?

Nesquik is NOVA group 4: ultra-processed. That is the top of the scale and the classification the score penalises most heavily.

At 5/100 Nesquik scores worse than most cereal we have scored. A higher-scoring option in cereal is Lovebird Grain Free Honey Breakfast Cereal at 100/100.
