Bill Knapp's Chocolate Bites — DUMP
Munch or Dump rates Bill Knapp's Chocolate Bites by Bill Knapp's DUMP — score 20/90.
Sugar is the #1 ingredient and it contains partially hydrogenated oil, an industrial trans fat. That alone makes this a hard pass.
Why this verdict
- Partially hydrogenated oil = artificial trans fat, the worst fat for your heart
- Sugar is the first and largest ingredient
- Bleached, refined wheat flour with no real fiber
- Palm kernel oil adds saturated fat on top
- Ultra-processed (NOVA 4) with nothing redeeming
Ingredients (8)
- Sugar (concerning) — Added refined sugar, listed high - spikes blood sugar with no nutrition.
- Enriched bleached wheat flour (moderate) — Refined, bleached flour stripped of fiber then fortified back; spikes blood sugar.
- Partially hydrogenated vegetable oil (soybean and/or cottonseed) (harmful) — Artificial trans fat — raises LDL, lowers HDL, drives heart disease. No safe amount.
- Palm Kernel Oil (concerning) — Highly saturated refined oil used in the fake 'confectionery coating' to mimic chocolate cheaply.
- Whey (safe) — Dairy protein byproduct, generally fine.
- Water (safe) — Inert; just adjusts texture.
- egg yolk (safe) — Real egg yolk acts as the natural emulsifier — a clean, recognizable ingredient.
- SOYBEAN (safe) — Whole legume ingredient; neutral here.
