Healthier Eats Score

The Healthier Score is a nutrition-based comparison score that ranks restaurant meals using published per-portion nutrition data: calories, protein, fibre, sugar, salt and saturated fat.

It does not assess ingredient quality, processing level, additives, cooking method, allergens or whether a meal is suitable for a specific diet.

Better than 60% in Sandwiches
Salt: 2.6g

Around 43% of the adult daily maximum. UK guidance says adults should have no more than 6g of salt per day. This product contains around 43% of that amount.

Salt watch-out

This meal contains 2.6g salt, around 43% of the adult daily maximum. This is above the UK high-salt per-portion threshold, but it does not reduce the final score because the raw score (76.5) is already at or below the salt cap of 82.

How this score is calculated

Each nutrient gets a 0-100 sub-score. Sub-scores are combined into a weighted average (the raw score). If a serving-level watch-out applies, the final score is capped.

How each sub-score was created

Each nutrient value is mapped onto a scoring curve. Where a value sits between two anchor points, the score is interpolated linearly.

Calories
Calories: 557 kcal
200kcal→45
400kcal→85
550kcal→100
650kcal→85
750kcal→60
900kcal→30
1100kcal→10

557 kcal sits between 550 kcal and 650 kcal. The score is interpolated between 100 and 85, giving a calorie sub-score of 99.

Protein
Protein: 32g

Protein is scored using both total grams and the share of calories from protein. The gram score contributes 60% and the protein-energy score contributes 40%.

Protein gram curve:
0g→0
15g→60
30g→100
Protein energy curve: 0% → 0, 20%+ → 100
Gram sub-score: 100
Energy sub-score: 100 (23% of calories from protein)
Blended protein sub-score = (gram × 0.60) + (energy × 0.40) = 100
Fibre
Fibre: 4.7g
0g→10
2g→35
4g→60
6g→85
8g→100

4.7g sits between 4g and 6g. The score is interpolated between 60 and 85, giving a fibre sub-score of 68.8.

Sugar
Sugar: 9.5g
5g→100
10g→80
15g→55
25g→25
50g→0

Lower sugar scores better. 9.5g sits between 5g and 10g. The score is interpolated between 100 and 80, giving a sugar sub-score of 82.

Salt
Salt: 2.6g (around 43% of the adult daily maximum of 6g)
1.5g→100
2g→80
2.4g→60
3g→40
4g→15
6g→0

Lower salt scores better. 2.6g sits between 2.4g and 3g. The score is interpolated between 60 and 40, giving a salt sub-score of 53.3.

Salt caps are separate from the salt sub-score. The sub-score contributes to the weighted average. A cap only limits the final score if salt is high enough and the raw score is above the cap.

Saturated fat
Saturated fat: 6.2g
3g→100
5g→75
7g→40
10g→15
20g→0

Lower saturated fat scores better. 6.2g sits between 5g and 7g. The score is interpolated between 75 and 40, giving a saturated fat sub-score of 54.

At a glance

Worked score calculation

Contribution = Sub-score x Weight. The raw score is the total contribution divided by the total weight (95).

Saturated fat5415810.0
Total957,270.4

Raw score = 7,270.4 / 95 = 76.5. After rounding, the final Healthier Score is 77/100.

Salt methodology

UK adults are advised to have no more than 6g salt per day. UK front-of-pack guidance treats more than 1.8g salt per portion as high for food portions over 100g. Healthier Eats uses these serving-level thresholds to decide when salt should limit the maximum score.

This is a nutrition-based comparison score for ranking restaurant meals against similar products. It is not a medical rating, ingredient-quality score or dietary advice. Always verify nutrition, ingredients and allergens with the restaurant before ordering.

What this score does not include

The Healthier Score is based on published nutrition values only. It does not currently assess ingredient quality, processing level, additives, cooking method, allergens or personal dietary suitability.

For example, two meals may have similar nutrition scores but differ in ingredients, processing or cooking method. Always check the restaurant's latest nutrition, ingredients and allergen information before ordering.
