Munch or Dump rates Weikfield Green Chilli Sauce by WeiKFiELD DUMP — score 17/90.

A thin chilli condiment padded with water and potato, sweetened with added sugar, and held together by a synthetic preservative plus a gum stabilizer. NOVA group 4 processed food.

Why this verdict

• Synthetic preservative sodium benzoate (INS 211) keeps it shelf-stable
• Added sugar is high on the list, ahead of most of the actual chilli aromatics
• Bulked out with water and potato filler, not chilli (chilli is only 25%)
• Stacked stabilizer + acidity regulator + cornflour = engineered, NOVA-4 formulation
• Salt added on top of the sugar
