Hi guys, does someone know what the four point symbol means? That is not a star and I can find an explanation.
Btw this is from the HSR calculator.

Hi Emily,

 

"The Health Star Rating is a front-of-pack labelling system that rates the overall nutritional profile of packaged food and assigns it a rating from ½ a star to 5 stars", so that looks like it might be a half star as the ratings go from ½ a star to 5 stars?

 

The design doesn’t match the prescribed design as there is a score on the examples in the guide. See attached image.

Kind regards,
