Bauli Savoriz Cheese Jalapeno Puff Roll — BULLSHIT
Munch or Dump rates Bauli Savoriz Cheese Jalapeno Puff Roll by Bauli BULLSHIT — score 0/90.
Sold as 'no artificial flavour, no harmful preservatives, made with goodness of wheat and milk' — but it's built on partially hydrogenated oil (trans fat), refined palm oil, maltodextrin, multiple artificial flavours and several chemical preservatives.
Why this verdict
- Marketed 'no artificial flavour' yet explicitly lists artificial flavouring substances for cheese, butter and jalapeno
- Contains partially hydrogenated oil — industrial trans fat linked to heart disease
- Refined wheat flour (maida) + refined palm oil + sugar = empty, hyper-palatable base
- Maltodextrin and a stack of emulsifiers/humectants signal a lab-built formula
- Multiple chemical preservatives despite the 'no harmful preservatives' claim
Ingredients (14)
- Refined Wheat Flour (Maida) (concerning) — Stripped white flour, no fiber, spikes blood sugar; the #1 ingredient
- Partially Hydrogenated Oil (harmful) — Industrial trans fat — raises bad cholesterol, lowers good; strongly tied to heart disease.
- Refined palm oil (moderate) — Cheap refined oil high in saturated fat.
- Sugar (moderate) — Added for sweetness, can contribute to calorie content.
- Emulsifiers (INS 471, 477, 472b, 470i) (moderate) — Stacked emulsifiers hold the fatty dough together — a hallmark of ultra-processing.
- Humectant (INS 420 sorbitol / INS 422 glycerol) (moderate) — Keep it artificially soft and 'fresh much longer'; can cause GI upset in quantity.
- Maltodextrin (moderate) — Highly processed starch-derived carbohydrate used as a carrier and texturizer; spikes blood sugar readily.
- Refined Soyabean Oil (moderate) — Heavily refined seed oil, very high in omega-6 linoleic acid and low in omega-3; a NOVA-4 processed fat, fine in small amounts but easy to overuse.
- Preservatives (INS 282, 211, 202) (moderate) — Calcium propionate, sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate to extend shelf life.
- Cheese Powder (2.9%) (moderate) — Tiny amount of real cheese — most of the 'cheese' taste comes from flavouring.
- Jalapeno Pepper (2.5%) (safe) — Real pepper, but only a trace of the product.
- Artificial & Nature-identical Flavouring (Cheese, Butter, Jalapeno) (moderate) — Lab flavours doing the work the real ingredients don't — directly contradicts the 'no artificial flavour' claim.
- Milk Solids (safe) — Curdled dairy solids — the protein, fat, and calcium of milk. Whole-food base with no processing tricks.
- Wheat Gluten / Enzymes / Flour Improvers (INS 1101, 1100, 300) (moderate) — Dough conditioners and flour improvers typical of industrial bakery mixes.
