Munch or Dump rates Meiji Yan Yan Chocolate Cream Dip with Crispy Cracker Sticks by Meiji DUMP — score 17/90.

Cracker sticks fried in partially hydrogenated oil (trans fat) with a sugar-and-cocoa dip and artificial flavors. The trans fat alone sinks it.

Why this verdict

Partially hydrogenated oils = artificial trans fat, which has no safe level and raises heart-disease risk
Refined wheat flour and sugar are the base — empty, blood-sugar-spiking calories
Artificial flavors doing the heavy lifting on a 'chocolate' taste
Ultra-processed (NOVA 4) snack marketed to kids

wheat flour (moderate) — Thickening agent, not harmful but adds processing.
Partially hydrogenated palm and canola oils (harmful) — Industrial trans fat, raises LDL, lowers HDL, the worst fat for your arteries.
Sugar (moderate) — Added for sweetness, can contribute to calorie content.
Whole Milk Powder (safe) — Dairy solids.
Non-fat milk powder (moderate) — Dried skim dairy, neutral filler.
CHOCOLATE LIQUOR (safe) — Real cocoa mass providing genuine chocolate flavor.
cocoa processed with alkali (safe) — Dutched cocoa for chocolate flavor and color.
Cheese (moderate) — Real cheese gives solid protein and calcium, but it's calorie-dense and high in saturated fat and sodium.
Salt (moderate) — Used in moderation, might exceed necessary amount.
Soy Lecithin (safe) — Common emulsifier, generally benign in these amounts.
Sodium bicarbonate (leavening) (safe) — Baking soda to lift the wafer; standard and benign.
Yeast powder (safe) — Adds savory depth; carries barley and wheat.
Artificial Flavors (moderate) — Synthetic flavoring; the reason this counts as a flavored coffee.
Natural coloring (beta carotene and caramel) (safe) — Naturally derived colors; low concern.
