McEnnedy Pancake Mix it — TREAT

Munch or Dump rates McEnnedy Pancake Mix it by McEnnedy TREAT — score 45/90.

A simple sugar-and-refined-flour pancake mix. Indulgent, but the ingredient list is short and recognizable apart from a little maltodextrin and unnamed flavouring.

Why this verdict

• Built on refined wheat flour with sugar as the #2 ingredient
• Maltodextrin adds nothing but fast-digesting filler carbs
• Generic 'flavouring' with no specifics
• Otherwise short, recognizable list with no artificial colours or emulsifier stacks

Ingredients (7)

• wheat flour (moderate) — Refined flour — fast carbs, little fibre, spikes blood sugar.
• Sugar (moderate) — Added sugar sitting ahead of cocoa; the main flavor driver here.
• egg (safe) — Real egg adds protein and structure.
• Baking powder (diphosphates, sodium carbonates, wheat starch) (safe) — Standard leavening agents, harmless in these amounts.
• Maltodextrin (concerning) — Ultra-processed filler with a very high glycemic index; a hallmark of NOVA 4 food.
• Salt (moderate) — Ready meals tend to run salt-heavy; watch the sodium.
• flavouring (moderate) — Undefined flavour additive; opaque label with no detail on what's in it.
