Can bran flakes survive nutrient profiling?

This week’s nugget leaves wholefoods behind as we look at food regulations affecting the marketing of some of the UK's most popular foods. We explain how recent updating of the UK’s nutrient profiling model (NPM) could push some foods into the High Fat Sugar Salt (HFSS) category and what the implications of this could be. Will Daisy be able to stomach bran flakes in a new, lowest free sugars form?
