Too Tarts Spray Candy All Kidz Blend Bonus — DUMP
Munch or Dump rates Too Tarts Spray Candy All Kidz Blend Bonus by Innovative Candy Concepts DUMP — score 20/90.
Liquid spray candy that's basically water, two artificial-style sweeteners, a stack of acids, artificial flavors and chemical preservatives. A splash of fruit concentrate is window dressing.
Why this verdict
- Sucralose plus xylitol: two lab/intense sweeteners doing all the flavor work
- Artificial flavors and a four-acid sour stack make this a chemistry set, not food
- Sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate are synthetic preservatives
- Fruit juice concentrates are last on the list, near zero real fruit
- Ultra-processed (NOVA 4) with no meaningful nutrition
Ingredients (12)
- Water (safe) — Inert; just adjusts texture.
- xylitol (moderate) — Sugar alcohol sweetener; tooth-friendly but causes gas/diarrhea in larger amounts and is highly toxic to dogs.
- citric acid (safe) — Common acidulant for tartness and preservation; safe in these amounts.
- Lactic Acid (safe) — Acidulant for tartness and preservation; harmless.
- APPLE JUICE CONCENTRATE (moderate) — The 'real fruit' fig leaf — stripped-down fruit sugar with no fiber, present mainly for the label.
- ascorbic acid (safe) — Vitamin C used as an antioxidant/dough aid; benign.
- malic acid (safe) — Tart flavoring acid; fine in small amounts.
- Natural and Artificial Flavors (moderate) — Undisclosed lab-made flavor blend; the 'artificial' half is pure synthetic chemistry with no food value.
- Sucralose (moderate) — Intense artificial sweetener; calorie-free but keeps you chasing sweetness and may affect gut bacteria.
- Blueberry juice concentrate (moderate) — Trace fruit concentrate for color/flavor near the end of the list; nutritionally negligible.
- sodium benzoate (moderate) — Preservative; can form trace benzene with vitamin C and a marker of ultra-processing.
- Potassium Sorbate (moderate) — Synthetic preservative; generally tolerated but a processing marker.
