Munch or Dump rates Jammie Dodgers Raspberry Flavour Shortcake Cookies by Jammie Dodgers DUMP — score 17/90.

A refined-flour shortcake glued together with sugar syrups, not fruit. The 'raspberry' jam is actually apple jam built on glucose-fructose syrup with added sugar, and the whole thing is a NOVA-4 sugar-and-oil delivery system.

Why this verdict

Three separate added sugars: glucose-fructose syrup, sugar, and partially inverted sugar syrup
'Raspberry' jam contains zero raspberries, just flavoured apple jam on a glucose-fructose syrup base
Refined wheat flour plus refined vegetable oils plus sugar, the hyper-palatable triad
NOVA-4 ultra-processed: humectants, gelling agents, added flavourings, sugar-forward jam
No fibre, protein, or real fruit, just fast carbs and fat

Ingredients (14)

Wheat flour (refined, fortified) (moderate) — Refined white flour with mandatory UK fortification; fast-digesting carbs, little fibre.
glucose-fructose syrup (caution) — Industrial liquid sweetener (equivalent to HFCS); adds fast sugar and smooth texture.
Sugar (moderate) — Added for sweetness, can contribute to calorie content.
Partially inverted sugar syrup (concerning) — A third added-sugar source; inverted syrup is fast-absorbing glucose and fructose.
Apple (jam base) (moderate) — The actual fruit in the 'raspberry' filling, used as a cheap pulp carrier, not raspberries.
Vegetable oils (palm, rapeseed) (moderate) — Refined oils added purely for texture and calories; palm is saturated-fat heavy.
Glycerol (Humectant) (moderate) — Added to hold moisture and keep the wrap 'soft' for weeks; a marker of a processed, texture-engineered product.
Pectin (Gelling Agent) (safe) — Fruit-derived natural gelling fiber; harmless and traditional for curds and jams.
Anthocyanins & Annatto (colours) (safe) — Natural-source colourings used to fake a raspberry-red look.
Sodium metabisulphite (preservative) (moderate) — Sulphite preservative — can trigger reactions in sensitive/asthmatic people.
Citric acid & sodium citrates (safe) — Acidulant and acidity regulator for tartness and shelf stability.
Raising agents (ammonium/sodium bicarbonate) (safe) — Standard leavening agents to make the biscuit crisp; harmless.
Salt (moderate) — Used in moderation, might exceed necessary amount.
Flavourings (moderate) — Undisclosed added flavor compounds engineered to mimic BBQ ribs.
