Snacks including Teriyaki Roasted Seaweed Snacks and Premium Roasted Seaweed by GimMe Organic, Black Sesame Rice Crackers by Spiral Foods and multiple brands of chips, including those suggesting they may be healthier options, would be downgraded.Jane Martin, Cancer Council Victoria's executive manager of obesity and alcohol programs, said a new algorithm would more accurately calculate and reflect nutritional value, bringing stars on products such as Nutri-Grain from four to 2.5.
"In the cereals section, for example, something like Nutri-Grain, which was 32 per cent sugar and reformulated to 26.7 per cent sugar, still got four stars — that's a high-sugar product with four stars, which doesn't make sense," said Ms Martin, also executive manager of the Obesity Policy Coalition.
Many muesli bars are basically a biscuit.. Health star ratings are laughable.
I absolutely concur! I do not eat cereal simply bc it is that unhealthy. Orgran 'no sugar' should lower their price so I can at least afford it, and then hit the media with a massive health campaign.
Thank God! How the hell do cereals with 25% sugar get 4 stars?
Stop the health star rating. Human nutrition can't be reduced to a 0-5 point rating. Eat unprocessed food and you'll be fine.
