Ingredients with an unresolved source
The oil source is not identified as plant-derived.
We could not identify this ingredient reliably. Check the label spelling; this is a recognition gap, not evidence of animal origin.
Natural flavours can come from plant or animal sources.
This ingredient name is in the source dictionary, but it is not yet covered by a verified assessment. This is not evidence of animal origin.
Mono- and diglycerides can be made from plant or animal fats.
The source or production method of retinyl palmitate can vary, so it is not always vegan.
Unspecified flavourings may contain carriers or ingredients of animal origin.

Nutri-Score is the grade reported in the source, not a score calculated or certified by us. NOVA describes processing. The Veganory indicator is a separate estimate; it does not determine whether a product is vegan.

How our indicator is calculated
When available, Nutri-Score A–E maps to 92, 74, 55, 34 or 16 points. With NOVA present, we combine 80% of those points with 20% of the processing indicator (100, 82, 52 or 16 for groups 1–4). Without NOVA we use the nutrition points alone. Without a usable Nutri-Score, we do not rate the product. This is a simplified comparison aid, not a validated health assessment.

Questions about this product
Is this answer valid for every MARKETSIDE product?
No. This page covers MARKETSIDE DECADENT LEMON DROP COOKIES, DECADENT LEMON DROP, barcode 681131348485. Other flavours, package versions or recipes sold in different countries may differ. Match the barcode and ingredient list on your package.
What still needs to be confirmed?
The source of unspecified oil, an emulsifier, natural flavours, Margarine, mono- and diglycerides, retinyl palmitate, flavourings needs clarification. Check the current package for a vegan certification or ask the manufacturer about these exact ingredients. A confidence label is not a certification.
Is the nutrition rating the same as the vegan result?
No. Vegan status concerns ingredient origin. Nutri-Score describes a nutrition profile, NOVA describes processing, and the Veganory score is our own combination of available indicators. A vegan result does not mean a food is nutritionally balanced.
What if my label is different?
