Orchard Splash Grape Juice — TREAT

Munch or Dump rates Orchard Splash Grape Juice by Orchard Splash TREAT — score 45/90.

Reconstituted grape juice from concentrate that's essentially sugar water with vitamin C added. No fiber to slow the sugar, so it hits your bloodstream like soda despite the '100% juice' badge.

Why this verdict

• Grape juice concentrate is the sugar core, around 36g per cup with no fiber to slow it
• Reconstituted from concentrate, not fresh-pressed, then flavor-corrected with natural flavor
• Vitamin C is added back, a sign the juice was processed enough to need it
• Short, additive-light list keeps it out of DUMP territory, but it's still liquid sugar

Ingredients (5)

• Water (safe) — Inert; just adjusts texture.
• grape juice concentrate (moderate) — Concentrated grape sugars; stripped of fiber so the sugar absorbs fast, spiking blood sugar like soda.
• Natural flavor (moderate) — A vague regulatory catch-all that can hide a range of processing aids; not transparent, so it loses points.
• malic acid (safe) — Tart flavoring acid; fine in small amounts.
• ascorbic acid (safe) — Vitamin C used as an antioxidant/dough aid; benign.
