Food Label for Biscuit: Britannia Treat Crème
Biscuit: Britannia Treat CrèmeThese biscuits are a treat, so I won't hold them to the same standard as everyday foods. However, they're quite high in sugar and fat, so moderation is key. Benefit: - Source of quick energy: With 483 kcal per 100g, these biscuits can provide a quick energy boost, mainly from the high carbohydrate content. Concerns: - High sugar content: 31.8g of added sugars per 100g is very high. This can contribute to weight gain and other health issues if consumed regularly in large quantities. - High fat content: 19g of total fat per 100g, with 9.5g being saturated, is also high. Saturated fat should be limited in the diet to maintain heart health. Ingredients to note: - Palm oil: This is a common ingredient in processed foods and is high in saturated fat. Its sustainability is also a concern. Alternatives: - Look for biscuits with lower sugar and fat content, or consider pairing these with a source of protein and fiber to help balance the blood sugar spike. A handful of nuts or a glass of milk would be good pairings.
