Britannia GoodDay Choco Chip — DUMP
Munch or Dump rates Britannia GoodDay Choco Chip by Britannia DUMP — score 17/90.
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 bran and germ, so it acts like fast sugar with little fiber.
- Sugar (moderate) — Added for sweetness, can contribute to calorie content.
- Edible vegetable oil (palm) (concerning) — Refined palm oil, high in saturated fat; a processed fat added for softness and shelf life.
- Edible hydrogenated vegetable oil (palm) (harmful) — Partially hydrogenated fat - a source of trans fat linked to heart disease.
- Cocoa Solids (safe) — Provides chocolate flavor and some antioxidants.
- invert syrup (moderate) — A third sweetener that keeps the cookie soft.
- Dextrose (caution) — Second added sweetener.
- 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) — Processed mono/diglyceride emulsifier used to bind refined fats.
- Raising agents (503ii, 500ii, 450i) (moderate) — Leavening salts; safe but mark a processed bake.
- Salt (moderate) — Used in moderation, might exceed necessary amount.
- Natural food colour (150d - caramel) (moderate) — Caramel coloring for appearance; purely cosmetic.
- Artificial flavouring substances (chocolate, vanilla) (concerning) — Lab-made flavors standing in for real chocolate and vanilla.
