Ingredients, most to least

Mostly cartofi deshidratati, uleiuri vegetale and faina de grâu.

A percentage with ≤ in front of it is a ceiling, not a measurement: the most that can be in the pack, given what the label declares and the order the list runs in. A plain percentage is one the label states outright.

  • Fibre2.5 g per 100 g0/5
  • Fruit, vegetables and legumes0% of the product0/5
  • Protein was not countedThe 2023 algorithm drops the protein credit once negative points reach 11, so a high-sugar or high-fat food cannot buy the points back with protein.
  • Nutri-Score points12 negative − 0 positive = 12, which Open Food Facts grades D

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.

Within its own category

Compared against stacked extruded potato crisps 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.
