Is Vanilla truly good for you, or is it just clever marketing? We analyzed the nutritional density, ingredient safety, and processing levels using the CakeID Algorithm. With a calculated health score of 50/100, here is the deep dive into what you are actually eating.

⚠️ Additive Watch: Critical Flags

The ingredient list reveals the presence of Mono- and Diglycerides.

With only 7g of sugar, this product maintains a balanced profile. It avoids the excessive sweetness of typical processed foods while providing 4g of protein.

Final Verdict

Taking into account the macro-nutrient balance, additive risks, and caloric density, Vanilla achieves a CakeID Score of 50/100.

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.
