⚠️ Additive Watch: Critical Flags
The ingredient list reveals the presence of BHA (Butylated Hydroxyanisole). A waxy solid preservative used to prevent fats from going rancid. The National Toxicology Program classifies it as 'reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen'. For health-conscious consumers, this is a significant red flag that lowered the product's overall score.
Nutritional Balance
With only 10g of sugar, this product maintains a balanced profile. It avoids the excessive sweetness of typical processed foods while providing 7g of protein.
Keto & Diet Matchmaker
For those following a strict Keto diet, Corn Flakes is highly problematic. A standard Keto diet restricts carbs to about 20g per day. Just 100g of this product contains 80g of carbohydrates, which instantly consumes roughly 400% of your entire daily allowance.
Final Verdict
Taking into account the macro-nutrient balance, additive risks, and caloric density, Corn Flakes achieves a CakeID Score of 80/100.
