White Stilton Cheese with Cranberries — TREAT
Munch or Dump rates White Stilton Cheese with Cranberries by on the go TREAT — score 45/90.
A simple, real-cheese indulgence — but it's full-fat Stilton plus sugar twice over (in the cranberries and added straight). Tasty, recognizable ingredients, just rich and sweet.
Why this verdict
- Full-fat Stilton means a heavy load of saturated fat
- Sugar shows up twice — coating the cranberries and added on its own
- The 'cranberries' are sweetened dried fruit, closer to candy than fruit
- Simple, recognizable ingredients with no artificial additives — earns treat, not dump
Ingredients (5)
- White Stilton Cheese (Milk) (moderate) — Real full-fat cow's-milk cheese — good protein and calcium, but high in saturated fat and salt.
- Sweetened Dried Cranberries (moderate) — Cranberries sweetened with apple juice concentrate — more added sugar.
- Sugar (in cranberries) (moderate) — Added sweetener; cranberries are too tart to dry without it.
- Sunflower Oil (moderate) — Refined seed oil; fine in the modest amounts used here.
- Sugar (added) (concerning) — A second standalone dose of refined sugar on top of the sugar already in the chips. Empty calories that drive the craving loop.
