Our take

CleanPlate review

A whole wheat bun that backs up its claims

Baker's Loaf Zero Maida Burger Bun is a whole wheat (atta) burger bun: whole wheat flour (63.33%), sugar, yeast, gluten, wheat bran (1.9%), refined soyabean oil, malt, two preservatives (282, 200), an emulsifier (471) and two acidity regulators. The pack is 300 g, and the panel and ingredients here are read from the brand's pack card because the back of the pack shows no table.

CleanPlate scores it CA3. The C for nutrition is middling: 8.6 g protein and 6 g fibre per 100 g. The A for ingredients reflects whole or lightly processed ingredients (led by whole wheat flour, sugar and gluten), with additives that cost points: mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids. The 3 for risk comes mainly from sodium (432 mg per 100 g) and free sugar (3.98 g per 100 g).

Myth: "Zero maida means no refined ingredients"

The bun still has sugar, gluten, malt and refined soyabean oil; only the flour is whole wheat.

Myth: "A brown bun is a whole wheat bun"

Check the first ingredient: here it is atta at 63.33%.
