Ultra-processed food: what is really in it

Processing: Zizzi Limoncello Basque

Boone cannot classify this dish, because Zizzi does not publish an ingredient list for it.

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

Ingredients

Zizzi does not publish an ingredient list for this dish

Ingredients: Zizzi Limoncello Basque

Zizzi publishes full ingredient lists for a select number of its dishes, and Zizzi Limoncello Basque is not one of them.

Food made to order in a restaurant 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. A full ingredient list is voluntary. Zizzi publishes one for around 30 dishes, which is more than many chains, but not for this one.

This means Boone cannot say how many ingredients are in this dish, or whether it is ultra-processed. Boone will not estimate it.

Allergen information for this dish is published by Zizzi and is shown below. Recipes change, so always check in restaurant before ordering if you have an allergy.
