Before it goes in the lunchbox

  1. Start with a familiar snack and compare another product in the same category.
  2. Read the reason for each grade and the limiting nutrient amounts.
  3. Check dietary claims, storage, price, and whether the alternative is something your child will eat.

What to compare

The pairs below use approved products and a stronger Label Grade within the same category. Compare both per serving and per 100g: a smaller label serving can change a grade without a different recipe.

A grade describes measured nutrition per serving. It does not score a child, a parent, or an entire diet.

Compare a familiar snack with an alternative

Does a stronger grade mean it is the right swap for every child?

No. The grade measures the nutrition covered by our rubric. It does not decide personal suitability, school policy, taste, or the balance of an entire diet.
