Nutri-Score is a traffic-light labeling system (A to E) intended to simplify nutrition, but it has triggered a North-South cultural divide. Proponents argue it provides immediate transparency that combats obesity and pressures brands to reformulate junk food. Opponents, led by Italy, argue it relies on "reductionist" algorithms that demonize single-ingredient heritage foods (like Parmesan or olive oil) due to fat content, while awarding passing grades to ultra-processed diet sodas full of artificial sweeteners.
