What to know about Britannia Come Alive Paneer

Two-ingredient paneer: strong protein, heavy saturated fat

Britannia Come Alive Paneer is a 200 g pack of paneer made from just two things: milk solids and an acidulant, citric acid (330). It is bought by people who want a vegetarian protein for curries, bhurji and grills, and who prefer a short ingredient list to a long one. The pack carries a green veg mark and states that it contains milk.

Per 100 g you get 301 kcal, 18.5 g protein, 23.7 g fat and 416 mg calcium, with 3.4 g sugar, none of it added, and only 27 mg sodium. The cost is on the fat side: 16.2 g saturated fat per 100 g, and 0.5 g trans fat is declared. The pack counts a serve as about 20 g, a tenth of the pack, which has 60 kcal.

The front says Paneer and Naturally rich in protein, and the list backs both: milk solids are the only food ingredient and the protein is real. Nothing on the front is hollow. The pack does not print a percentage for milk solids. CleanPlate scores it BA3.

Why Britannia Come Alive Paneer scores BA3

Nutrition is a B on 18.5 g protein and 416 mg calcium per 100 g. Ingredients are an A on a two-item list, and risk is a 3 because saturated fat is 16.2 g per 100 g.

01 Nutrition density: why B

Protein is 18.5 g per 100 g, all from milk solids, which are the only food ingredient. Calcium is 416 mg per 100 g, which earns a micronutrient bonus and lifts the grade to a B.

No fibre and no added sugar. One 20 g serve has 60 kcal, 3.7 g protein and 83 mg calcium.

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 A

The list is milk solids and citric acid (330), and nothing else. Citric acid is a simple acidulant and costs no ingredient points.

No hydrogenated fat is listed, so the declared trans fat of 0.5 g per 100 g is accepted as it is. The front claims hold, so there is no label penalty.

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

03 Load risk: why 3

Saturated fat drives the risk number: 16.2 g per 100 g, more than three times the 5 g high line. A 20 g serve has 3.2 g.

Sodium is only 27 mg per 100 g and added sugar is 0 g, so they add almost nothing. Energy is 301 kcal per 100 g, a small extra. The risk grade lands on a 3.

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