Food Label Checker

Type the barcode from any packet. Get the numbers that matter, plus the two ratings the front of the pack never shows: Nutri-Score and how ultra-processed it really is.

Data: Open Food Facts, a community database of 4+ million products with strong Irish and UK coverage. Product missing? It happens with fresh deli items; packaged goods are usually there.

What is a NOVA rating?

NOVA groups food by processing level: 1 is unprocessed or minimal (oats, milk, chicken), 2 is processed culinary ingredients (butter, oil), 3 is processed (cheese, bread), 4 is ultra-processed (soft drinks, confectionery, most ready meals). "High protein" on the front means nothing if the packet is a NOVA 4 sugar delivery system.

What is Nutri-Score?

A front-of-pack grade from A (best) to E used across Europe, scoring energy, sugar, saturated fat, salt, fibre and protein per 100g. Not perfect, but a fast comparison between two products on the same shelf.
