UK: Traffic light colour coding

Some front of pack nutrition labels use red, amber and green (traffic light) colour coding

Traffic light colour coding, as shown in the image above, tells you at a glance if the food has high, medium or low amounts of fat, saturated fat, sugars and salt.

-red means high
-amber means medium
-green means low

In short, the more green lights, the healthier the choice....
