Munch or Dump rates Benton's Sandwich Creme Cookies (Oreo dupe) by Benton's ENGINEERED — score 30/90.

Sugar is the very first ingredient, then a refined-flour wafer, then interesterified soybean oil — an industrially rearranged fat built for the shelf. Three sweeteners including high-fructose corn syrup and an artificial flavor complete a formula tuned purely for craving. A near-perfect Oreo clone, and just as engineered as the original.

Why this verdict

Sugar is the first ingredient, ahead of the flour
Interesterified soybean oil — an industrially modified fat
Three sweeteners: sugar, dextrose, and high-fructose corn syrup
Hyper-palatable triad plus added artificial flavor
NOVA 4 ultra-processed sandwich cookie

Ingredients (10)

Sugar (moderate) — Added for sweetness, can contribute to calorie content.
Enriched Flour (moderate) — Refined flour with some nutrients added back, lacks whole-grain benefits.
Interesterified soybean oil (caution) — Industrially rearranged fat that replaces trans fat; emerging evidence links it to unfavorable metabolic effects.
Dextrose (caution) — Second added sweetener.
High Fructose Corn Syrup (caution) — The dominant sweetener and second ingredient; drives the sugar load.
cocoa processed with alkali (safe) — Dutched cocoa for chocolate flavor and color.
Chocolate (safe) — Small amount of real chocolate; a minor positive.
Artificial Flavor) (moderate) — Lab-made flavor doing the 'creme' work.
Soy Lecithin (safe) — Common emulsifier, generally benign in these amounts.
Leavening (bicarbonates) (safe) — Standard baking leaveners; not a concern.
