How to choose food & nutrition
Start with ingredients, dietary suitability and the amount you will actually eat. Compare equivalent serving sizes rather than letting a small pack look cheaper than a larger one.
| Check before buying | Why it matters | Trade-off or limit |
|---|---|---|
| Ingredients, allergens and cross-contact warnings | Read the current packaging, not just an online headline. | Plant-based does not necessarily mean vegan or suitable for an allergy. |
| Unit price and usable servings | Compare price per kilogram or litre and the portion you normally use. | Bulk buying saves little if food expires before you finish it. |
| Storage, shelf life and sourcing scope | Check whether refrigeration and a named certification apply to this exact product. | An organic or fair-trade claim does not describe every nutritional or environmental outcome. |
Common mistake: Treat supplement and wellness claims cautiously; a shopping score is not evidence that a food treats a condition.
Checking the Vegan label
This list uses the Vegan label recorded in the catalogue. Check the named certifier, current status and whether the claim applies to the whole company, one range or this exact item. A label does not guarantee performance, value or suitability for your needs.
