This product contains sultanas, which are a natural source of sugars, but the addition of sunflower oil, a seed oil, is a concern due to its high omega-6 fatty acid content and potential inflammatory effects. The processing level limits the score, and the presence of sunflower oil further reduces the healthiness of the product compared to those using healthier oils.
