What to know about Wingreens Farms Jalapeno Cheese Dip

A cheese dip that is mostly oil and salt

A 150 g tub of emulsified dip built on sunflower oil and water, then sugar, cheese powder (6%), milk solids, iodized salt and jalapeno (2.5%). Thickeners, acidity regulators, an antioxidant, two preservatives and nature-identical flavouring finish the list. It is bought as a ready spread for chips, sandwiches and salads.

What you get is flavour, not nutrition: 1 g protein per 100 g and no fibre. What it costs is on the fat and salt side. Per 100 g there are 479 kcal, 49.2 g fat, 8.2 g saturated fat, 6.3 g added sugar and 863.8 mg sodium. A 35 g serve, which is about 4.3 per tub, gives 168 kcal and about 302 mg sodium.

The name promises jalapeno and cheese, and both are in the list, but as small shares: cheese powder 6% and jalapeno 2.5%, behind oil, water and sugar. Nothing on the pack is hollow, though the dip is far more oil than cheese. CleanPlate scores it EB5.

Why Wingreens Farms Jalapeno Cheese Dip scores EB5

Nutrition is an E because protein is only 1 g per 100 g and there is no fibre. Ingredients are a B on a clean label, and risk is a 5 on sodium, saturated fat and calories.

Protein

None declared
Energy
479 kcal

01 Nutrition density: why E

Protein is 1 g per 100 g, mostly from the cheese powder, and there is no declared fibre. Together with no declared vitamins or minerals, nothing earns credit, so the grade is the lowest.

The energy comes from fat instead: 49.2 g per 100 g, from sunflower oil.

Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.

02 Ingredient integrity: why B

The list is short and mostly recognisable: sunflower oil, water, sugar, cheese powder, milk solids, salt and jalapeno. No hydrogenated fat is listed, and the pack makes no promise the list contradicts, so there is no label-integrity cost.

Points are lost for three additives: nature-identical flavouring, the thickener hydroxypropyl distarch phosphate (1442) and xanthan gum (415). Each costs ingredient points. The preservatives and acidity regulators are listed but cost nothing in this grade.

Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.

Trans fat

03 Load risk: why 5

Sodium is the biggest driver: 863.8 mg per 100 g, about 302 mg in a 35 g serve. Saturated fat at 8.2 g per 100 g is above the 5 g high line, and energy is 479 kcal per 100 g.

Trans fat is declared at 0.9 g per 100 g, which adds to the number even though no hydrogenated fat is listed. Added sugar of 6.3 g per 100 g is the smallest part.

Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.

Red flags

  • Red flag: High sodium (863.8mg per 100g)
  • Red flag: High saturated fat (8.2g)
  • Red flag: Contains trans fat (0.9g)
  • Red flag: Contains Sodium Benzoate

Green flags

Nothing stands out in its favour.

Does Wingreens Farms Jalapeno Cheese Dip live up to its claims?

The jalapeno and cheese in the name are real but small, at 2.5% and 6%. The vegetarian claim holds, and the handmade claim sits beside thickeners, preservatives and flavouring.

  • Product name

    “Jalapeno Cheese Dip”

    Partly true

    Both are in the list, but cheese powder is 6% and jalapeno 2.5%. Sunflower oil and water make up most of the dip.

  • On the pack

    “Traditionally Handmade”

    Be careful

    The list carries thickeners (1442, 415), two preservatives and nature-identical flavouring, which are not what a handmade claim suggests.

  • On the pack

    “100% Vegetarian”

    Holds

    The pack carries the green vegetarian mark, and the milk solids and cheese powder are dairy, not meat.

What's in Wingreens Farms Jalapeno Cheese Dip?

Sunflower oil, water and sugar lead the list, with cheese powder at 6% and jalapeno at 2.5%. Watch the sodium and the fat, and the thickeners and flavouring that cost points.

The ingredient list, read for you

Sunflower oil comes first, then water and sugar, so the dip is mostly oil. Cheese powder (6%) and milk solids give the cheese taste, and jalapeno (2.5%) and mixed spices give the heat. Salt, thickeners (1442, 415), acidity regulators (260, 330), an antioxidant (386), preservatives (202, 211) and nature-identical flavouring hold the texture and keep it stable.

Ingredients to watch

  • SodiumConcern

    863.8 mg per 100 g, about 302 mg in a 35 g serve. It is the largest part of the risk number.

  • Saturated fat and energyConcern

    8.2 g saturated fat and 479 kcal per 100 g, because sunflower oil leads the list. A serve gives 168 kcal.

  • Trans fat declaredWorth watching

    0.9 g per 100 g is printed on the pack, although no hydrogenated fat is listed.

  • Thickeners and flavouringWorth watching

    Hydroxypropyl distarch phosphate (1442), xanthan gum (415) and nature-identical flavouring each cost ingredient points.

  • Clean claimsFine

    No hydrogenated fat is listed and the vegetarian claim holds. Preservatives 202 and 211 are listed but cost nothing in the grade.

What it doesn’t have

  • No fibre, vitamins or minerals are declared on the panel.
