Ingredients with an unresolved source
We could not identify this ingredient reliably. Check the label spelling; this is a recognition gap, not evidence of animal origin.
The exact processing ingredient and its source are not listed.
The source or production method of flavouring preparation can vary, so it is not always vegan.
Unspecified flavourings may contain carriers or ingredients of animal origin.
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.
Limits in this record
- meat appears in structured source data but not in the parsed direct ingredient list, so it was not treated as confirmed.

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 Uncle Ben's product?
No. This page covers Uncle Ben's Paella Chorizo & Gemüse, barcode 3487400001856. 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 krăuter, unspecified processing aid, flavouring preparation, flavourings, Colour 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.
