How scoring works
The clean score reads only the ingredient label. Up to 60 points come from the 9 additive groups we check: each group not on the label earns its share, and a group named only in a "may contain" note earns half. Organic and sourcing claims do not apply to this kind of food, so the score is out of those 60 points, scaled to 100.
