Angel Food Cake Bar — DUMP
Munch or Dump rates Angel Food Cake Bar by Inter-American Products DUMP — score 20/90.
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 sugar sitting ahead of cocoa; the main flavor driver here.
- wheat starch (moderate) — Refined starch used for texture; empty refined carbohydrate.
- Enriched bleached wheat flour (moderate) — Refined and bleached; fiber and most nutrients stripped, then a few synthetic vitamins added back.
- Egg Whites (safe) — Real egg white, adds structure and a little protein.
- 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.
