Product Insights
Rich Tea is a Sainsbury’s sweet biscuit, classified as a sugary snack and part of the biscuits and cakes family. It falls in the ultra‑processed NOVA 4 tier and carries no Nutri‑Score label, while its formulation includes fortified wheat flour, sugar and palm oil, resulting in a high sugar proportion (about 21 % of the weight) and modest fiber, making it energy‑dense but low in protein. The product contains gluten, raising agents and additives E500, E500ii, E503 and E503ii, which may be a concern for allergen‑sensitive consumers, and its Eco‑Score of D reflects a moderate environmental impact.
