About

Genuine Food Review is an independent editorial publication about understanding the information and claims attached to food. It is for curious shoppers who want to compare products without treating a label as a complete account of quality, taste or personal suitability.

What we cover

We explain ingredient lists, nutrition panels, package language, processing and sourcing descriptions. Our articles focus on how to read and compare information, not on prescribing a diet or declaring one food best for everyone.

How we approach it

We separate verifiable label details from broad claims and personal preference. We use plain language, explain terms in context and say when the available information cannot settle a question. Readers should be able to follow the reasoning without taking our word for it.

Who it is for

Our readers may be standing in a shop aisle or looking over something already in the cupboard. We aim to give them a useful way to inspect the information in front of them, while recognising that taste, budget and individual needs differ.
