Angel Food Cake Bar — DUMP

Munch or Dump rates Angel Food Cake Bar by Inter-American Products DUMP — score 17/90.

Sugar is the #1 ingredient and the flour is bleached and refined. The "fat free" badge just distracts from a near-pure sugar-and-refined-starch dessert.

Why this verdict

• Sugar is the very first ingredient, ahead of any flour
• Flour is bleached and refined, so zero fiber and a fast blood-sugar spike
• Leavening is a stack of phosphate salts including sodium aluminum phosphate
• Ultra-processed (NOVA 4) dessert with no whole-food content
• "Fat free" hides that the calories are basically all sugar

Ingredients (5)

• Sugar (moderate) — Added for sweetness, can contribute to calorie content.
• wheat starch (safe) — Vitamin C, acts as a preservative here.
• Enriched bleached wheat flour (moderate) — Refined flour with dough conditioners.
• Egg Whites (safe) — Natural binder and protein source.
• Leavening (sodium acid pyrophosphate, sodium bicarbonate, monocalcium phosphate, sodium aluminum phosphate) (moderate) — A stack of phosphate salts for rise; the sodium aluminum phosphate in particular is pure industrial bakery chemistry.
