Which products can be considered “clean” or “cleaner”?

CLEAN because they contain zero additives or green additives only in the list of ingredients, no artificial colour or flavour, no palm oil not certified in the recipe, no hydrogenated fat and no eggs from caged hens.

CLEANER because their recipe has been improved as much as possible. These products may contain one or more orange additives but no red additives in the list of ingredients, no artificial colour or flavour, no palm oil not certified in the recipe, no hydrogenated fat and no eggs from caged hens.

We are gradually removing controversial ingredients from our recipes, sometimes at the request of customers, and sometimes at our own initiative."
