The sentence would read: "A study of shopping behaviour found that the less information people were given about a brand of jam, the better the choice they made, but when offered details of the ingredients, they got befuddled by their options and ended up choosing a jam they didn’t like." This makes sense in the context of the sentence, as it's plausible that shoppers could become overwhelmed or confused (befuddled) by a long list of ingredients.
