Berry Crunch — DUMP

Munch or Dump rates Berry Crunch by Crisp DUMP — score 17/90.

A neon kids' cereal built on two sugars, refined corn flour, and four artificial dyes. The 'berry' is a name, not an ingredient.

Why this verdict

• Four artificial colors stacked: Red 40, Yellow 6, Blue 1 plus turmeric
• Two added sugars (sugar + brown sugar) high on the list
• Refined corn flour base spikes blood sugar fast
• Natural and artificial flavors plus BHT preservative
• No actual berries despite the name

Ingredients (12)

• Corn Flour (moderate) — Refined starch used to bulk the clusters — fast carbs, little nutrition.
• Sugar (moderate) — Added for sweetness, can contribute to calorie content.
• whole grain oat flour (safe) — Genuine whole grain — fiber and the primary ingredient here.
• CANOLA OIL (moderate) — Refined vegetable oil.
• brown sugar (caution) — Second added sugar in the flavor base.
• Salt (moderate) — Used in moderation, might exceed necessary amount.
• Natural and Artificial Flavors (caution) — Undisclosed lab flavoring - the artificial half signals engineering.
• red 40 (avoid) — Artificial petroleum-derived dye with no purpose in a brown chocolate product; a decisive negative.
• yellow 6 (avoid) — Synthetic azo dye used purely for color.
• blue 1 (avoid) — Artificial dye used to tune color; no nutritional role.
• Turmeric (for color) (safe) — Natural colorant; harmless, used to tint the cereal.
• BHT (preservative) (concerning) — Synthetic antioxidant preservative; flagged for safety review and avoided in many markets.
