e-Millet Cookies — TREAT
Munch or Dump rates e-Millet Cookies by Moon Foods TREAT — score 45/90.
A simple ragi-and-wheat cookie, but it's still a sugar-and-oil cookie. Cane sugar sits in the top three ingredients and refined atta dilutes the millet, so this is an indulgence with a health halo, not a health food.
Why this verdict
- Cane sugar is a top-3 ingredient — this is a sweet biscuit, not a snack
- Refined atta dilutes the finger millet that's doing the nutritional work
- Vegetable oil adds refined fat on top of the sugar
- Ingredients are simple and clean — no artificial colors, flavors, or emulsifiers
- Real ragi brings some calcium, iron, and fiber, but not enough to redeem the sugar load
Ingredients (5)
- Finger Millet Flour (Ragi) (safe) — Whole grain that delivers calcium, iron, and fiber — the genuinely good part of this cookie.
- Atta (Wheat Flour) (moderate) — Refined-ish wheat flour that dilutes the millet and adds fast-digesting starch; contains gluten.
- Cane Sugar (moderate) — Added sugar with no nutritional upside; spikes blood sugar and adds empty calories.
- Vegetable Oils (moderate) — Unspecified refined oils add fat and calories; the vague label hides which oils are actually used.
- Salt (moderate) — Added sodium for flavour.
