- Nutri-Score points6 negative − 0 positive = 6, which Open Food Facts grades C. Among drinks, grade A is reserved for water.
Higher points in the first block mean a worse food; higher points in the second mean a better one. Open Food Facts computes them with the 2023 Nutri-Score algorithm, and the grade band is stretched onto 0–100 here so the letter and the number always agree.

Compared against oat based drinks rather than against all food. A low absolute score on olive oil or nuts is a known Nutri-Score artefact; the useful question is how this compares to the other things on the same shelf.
