Common questions

Is Nestlé Smarties healthy?

Nestlé Smarties scores 7/100 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 Nestlé Smarties?

Nestlé Smarties lists 20 ingredients, starting with Milk Chocolate, Sugar, Modified Milk Ingredients, Cocoa Butter and Unsweet Chocolate. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.
