Britannia GoodDay Choco Chip — DUMP
Munch or Dump rates Britannia GoodDay Choco Chip by Britannia DUMP — score 20/90.
Refined-flour cookie built on hydrogenated palm oil, three sweeteners, and an emulsifier-plus-artificial-flavor stack.
Why this verdict
- Contains hydrogenated vegetable oil - a source of trans fat that raises bad cholesterol
- Refined wheat flour and sugar are the top two ingredients - fast blood-sugar spike, no fiber
- Three distinct sweeteners stacked: sugar, invert syrup, and dextrose
- Emulsifiers (322, 472e) plus artificial flavoring substances - classic ultra-processed build
Ingredients (13)
- Refined wheat flour (concerning) — Stripped of fiber and most nutrients; spikes blood sugar fast.
- Sugar (concerning) — Added refined sugar, listed high - spikes blood sugar with no nutrition.
- Edible vegetable oil (palm) (moderate) — Refined palm oil; high in saturated fat.
- Edible hydrogenated vegetable oil (palm) (harmful) — Partially hydrogenated fat - a source of trans fat linked to heart disease.
- Cocoa Solids (safe) — The actual chocolate; contributes flavor and some antioxidants, but it's far down the list.
- invert syrup (concerning) — A second free-sugar source for sweetness and browning.
- Dextrose (concerning) — A second added sugar (pure glucose) that hits the bloodstream even faster than sucrose.
- Emulsifier (322 - lecithin) (moderate) — Soy/sunflower lecithin to bind oil and water for a smooth filling; generally tolerated but a marker of processed food.
- Emulsifier (472e) (moderate) — Mono- and diacetyl tartaric esters; industrial dough/texture additive.
- Raising agents (503ii, 500ii, 450i) (moderate) — Leavening salts; safe but mark a processed bake.
- Salt (moderate) — Added sodium for flavour.
- Natural food colour (150d - caramel) (moderate) — Caramel coloring for appearance; purely cosmetic.
- Artificial flavouring substances (chocolate, vanilla) (concerning) — Lab-made flavors to fake a richer chocolate taste than the formula delivers.
