Free sugar vs total sugar

Where the sugar comes from: Greggs Regular Mocha

20.8g of the 30g counts as free sugar. Greggs does not split its sugar figure, so Boone deducts the lactose in the milk at 1.3g for every gram of protein, a ratio taken from unsweetened milk drinks, and rounds up so free sugar is never understated. That leaves 5.2 teaspoons.

NHS daily free sugar limits: 30g for adults and children 11+, 24g age 7 to 10, 19g age 4 to 6.

Ultra-processed food: what is really in it

Processing: Greggs Regular Mocha

Boone cannot classify this item, because Greggs chooses not to publish an ingredient list for it.

NOVA classification is read from an ingredient list. Without one there is no way to count additives, separate raw ingredients from manufactured ones, or say whether an item is ultra-processed. Boone does not estimate a NOVA group, because a guess presented as a classification would be worse than saying nothing.

Greggs publishes calories, macronutrients, fibre and allergens for its menu. Ingredient lists are the missing piece.

Ingredients

Greggs chooses not to publish an ingredient list

Ingredients: Greggs Regular Mocha

Greggs does not publish the ingredients in a Greggs Regular Mocha, and it is under no legal obligation to do so.

Food prepared in a shop and sold loose counts as non-prepacked under UK food law. The legal requirement is to declare the 14 major allergens, and for large businesses in England to show calories at the point of choice. A full ingredient list is voluntary. Some chains publish one anyway. Greggs publishes nutrition and allergens for every item, but not ingredients.

This means no page on this site can tell you how many ingredients are in this item, how many of them are manufactured substances, or whether it is ultra-processed. Boone will not estimate any of it. That absence is Greggs’s decision, not an omission on our part.

Greggs is not unusual in this. UK law lets any business selling food made on the premises skip ingredient labelling entirely, and the chains that publish do so by choice.

Allergen information for this item is published by Greggs and is shown below. Recipes change, so always check in the shop before buying if you have an allergy.
