Ingredient Decoder

Moderate Caution

Sodium Phosphate

Used in processed meats and cheese to maintain moisture. High intake is dangerous for people with kidney issues and can weaken bones by leaching calcium.

Maltodextrin

A highly processed white powder from corn or wheat. It has a higher Glycemic Index than table sugar (spiking insulin rapidly) and can suppress good gut bacteria.

Dextrose

A simple sugar chemically identical to glucose. It absorbs instantly into the bloodstream, causing rapid energy spikes and crashes. Often used as a filler.

DATEM

Diacetyl Tartaric Acid Esters of Monoglycerides. A dough conditioner used to strengthen bread structure. Usually derived from GMO soy or palm oil.

Enriched Flour

Refined flour with synthetic vitamins added back in. Acts like pure sugar in the body, spiking insulin.

Invert Sugar

A syrup mixture of glucose and fructose. Retains moisture better than regular sugar but has the same negative metabolic effects.

Health Integrity Analysis

Are Pastry Crisps healthy? Our data-driven analysis evaluates its ingredient quality, sugar content, and processing level. The final verdict is a score of 40/100. Let's look at the science behind this number.

⚠️ Moderate Caution

While free from the most dangerous additives, we detected Sodium Phosphate. Used in processed meats and cheese to maintain moisture. High intake is dangerous for people with kidney issues and can weaken bones by leaching calcium. It is generally safe in small amounts but worth noting for sensitive diets.

The Sugar Reality Check

This product contains 28g of sugar per 100g. To put that into perspective, that's equivalent to eating roughly 7 sugar cubes directly. While it might taste great, such a high glycemic load can lead to rapid insulin spikes followed by energy crashes.

Keto & Diet Matchmaker

For those following a strict Keto diet, Pastry Crisps is highly problematic. A standard Keto diet restricts carbs to about 20g per day. Just 100g of this product contains 80g of carbohydrates, which instantly consumes roughly 400% of your entire daily allowance.

Final Verdict

Taking into account the macro-nutrient balance, additive risks, and caloric density, Pastry Crisps achieves a CakeID Score of 40/100.

Treat Only: Due to the low score, we recommend enjoying this only as an occasional treat rather than a dietary staple.

Health Recommendations

Sugar Spike

High sugar may cause energy crashes.
