How we counted

These are the products in the database shipped with the Basket Vitality app (July 2026) with this food in their name and a Nutri-Score. We read every product name and removed nothing. Every product counts once, whatever it sells. The grades come from Open Food Facts records, which volunteers add, and we haven't checked them against each pack. Read the full method.
