arXiv:2610.28211v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Applying South Africa's draft R3337 warning criteria to food-package photographs requires nutrition, ingredient and product-form evidence. This study presents a region-guided evidence extraction and abstention-aware screening workflow for draft R3337. A three-class detector localises nutrition information panels, ingredient lists and product-identity regions, after which PaddleOCR and structured extraction recover nutrient values, ingredient evidence and product-form information. Recovered evidence is aggregated and assessed using deterministic
