⚠️ Moderate Caution

While free from the most dangerous additives, we detected Yellow 6 (Sunset Yellow). A synthetic food dye used in cheese, candy, and soda.

Taking into account the macro-nutrient balance, additive risks, and caloric density, Classic Lasagna Dinner Kit achieves a CakeID Score of 60/100.

Consume in Moderation: It's not a health hazard, but it shouldn't be a staple in your daily diet due to its processing level or nutritional density.
