Munch or Dump rates Riceworks Gourmet Sea Salt Rice Crisps by Shearer's BULLSHIT — score 0/90.

The bag screams 'no artificial anything' and 'all natural' — but caramel color, an artificial additive, is right there in the ingredient list.

Why this verdict

Labeled 'no artificial coloring' and 'all natural' yet contains caramel color
Caramel color is a purely cosmetic additive with no nutritional value
'17g whole grains' headline distracts from refined rice/corn flours that make up the bulk
It's still a fried/baked salty snack, not a health food

Whole Grain Brown Rice (safe) — Intact whole grain with fiber, minerals and slow carbs.
Brown and White Rice Flour (moderate) — Refined milled rice — fast-digesting starch, less fiber than the whole grain it's paired with.
Masa Corn Flour (moderate) — Nixtamalized corn flour — fine as food, but a refined starch that bumps the carb load.
Sunflower and/or Safflower and/or Canola Oil (moderate) — Refined high-omega-6 seed oil used for frying/coating; the 'and/or' means they swap whichever is cheapest.
Sesame Seeds (safe) — Whole seed; note this is a sesame allergen source.
Sea Salt (moderate) — Sodium source; no nutritional edge over regular salt.
caramel color (caution) — Artificial coloring for a browned look, no nutritional purpose.
