What to know about Fortune Mini Soya Chunks
Single-ingredient soy chunks, over half protein by weight
Fortune Mini Soya Chunks are small dried chunks made from one ingredient: defatted soy flour, 100% of the list. They are sold in a 200 g pack to vegetarians and home cooks who want a cheap, shelf-stable protein to add to curries, pulao and stir-fries.
The pack prints a 20 g serve, ten to a pack. One serve has 10.6 g protein, 3.06 g fibre and about 63 kcal, with 106 mg calcium and 4 mg iron. Per 100 g the dry chunks have 316 kcal, 52.9 g protein, 15.3 g fibre, 0.9 g fat, 4.9 g natural sugar, no added sugar and just 11.1 mg sodium.
The name and the front are straightforward: it is soy and nothing else, and it is low in fat. The headline protein comparison with milk sets dry chunks against a liquid, which flatters the number. CleanPlate scores it AB2.
Why Fortune Mini Soya Chunks scores AB2
Nutrition is an A on 52.9 g protein, 15.3 g fibre, calcium and iron per 100 g. Ingredients are a B for one plain ingredient with no additives. Risk is a 2, set by energy alone.

01 Nutrition density: why A
Protein is 52.9 g per 100 g, and fibre is 15.3 g. Per 20 g serve that is 10.6 g protein and 3.06 g fibre, which the pack puts at 19.6% of the daily protein value.
Minerals add a lot to the grade: 531.2 mg calcium and 19.9 mg iron per 100 g, about 106 mg and 4 mg per serve. They occur naturally in the soy, and the list shows no fortification. Fat is 0.9 g and added sugar is 0 g.
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 a single ingredient, defatted soy flour, with no additives, no sweetener, no added oil and no hollow label promise. That earns full marks for additives and label honesty.
What holds it at B is the form of the ingredient. Defatted soy flour is a processed form of soy rather than the whole bean, and the list gives no percentage or origin for it.
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 2
Risk is a 2, and energy sets it: 316 kcal per 100 g, which is high for the dry weight. Sugar is 0 g, saturated fat 0.3 g and sodium 11.1 mg per 100 g, so they add almost nothing.
The risk number reflects dry chunks. Once soaked in water the chunks weigh more and carry fewer kcal per 100 g, and a 20 g dry serve is only 63 kcal.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.

Does Fortune Mini Soya Chunks live up to its claims?
The low-fat and vegetarian claims hold: fat is 0.9 g per 100 g and the only ingredient is soy flour. The 15 times milk protein claim compares dry chunks with liquid milk.

True on paper: the pack sets milk at 3% against 52% for dry chunks. But it compares a dry food with a liquid. Soaked and cooked, the chunks hold much more water and the gap narrows.
