New Potatoes in Water — MUNCH

Munch or Dump rates New Potatoes in Water by freshona MUNCH — score 90/90.

Just potatoes in salted water with a firming agent and a touch of vitamin C. About as clean as canned food gets.

Why this verdict

• Whole potatoes are the first and dominant ingredient
• No added sugar, no refined oil, no emulsifiers or artificial additives
• Calcium chloride is just a benign firming salt; ascorbic acid is vitamin C
• Only real concern is the added salt from the brine

Ingredients (5)

• potatoes (safe) — The dominant ingredient at ~90%; a real whole vegetable with fiber and potassium.
• Water (safe) — First ingredient by weight; this pudding is mostly water, not milk.
• Salt (moderate) — Ready meals tend to run salt-heavy; watch the sodium.
• calcium chloride (moderate) — Industrial firming agent added to keep the okra crisp; safe but processed.
• ascorbic acid (safe) — Vitamin C, used to preserve freshness; benign and even mildly beneficial.
