Scotch egg by Coop — TREAT

Munch or Dump rates Scotch egg by Coop by coop TREAT — score 45/90.

This is basically kitchen food: a boiled egg wrapped in seasoned pork and a wheat crumb, fried in rapeseed oil. The ingredients are all things you'd recognize — meat, egg, flour, onion, herbs — with no additive stack. It's fatty and fried, so treat it as an indulgent snack rather than an everyday one.

Why this verdict

• Built on whole foods — pork and egg are the first two ingredients
• Seasoned with real sage, sea salt, and black pepper, not flavor enhancers
• No preservatives, artificial colors, or stabilizer stack
• Deep-fried in rapeseed oil and coated in wheat crumb — fatty and calorie-dense
• Indulgent but simple, recognizable ingredients — a classic TREAT profile
