What to know about Hatsun Curd
Two ingredients, but only 4 g protein
Hatsun Curd is a plain set curd in a 400 g tub, made from pasteurized toned cow's milk and an active culture. It is bought as an everyday dairy staple for curd rice, raita and a bowl with meals. The label gives no percentages, but the list has just the two ingredients.
One 100 g serve, a quarter of the tub, gives 76 kcal, 4 g protein, 4 g fat and 6 g sugar, all of it from the milk, with 0 g added sugar. Saturated fat is 2.5 g and sodium is 50 mg per 100 g. There is no fibre, and no vitamins or minerals are declared.
The pack says no artificial flavours, colours or preservatives, and the list agrees: nothing else is in it. The front also says rich and creamy, which is a texture claim that the 4 g of fat supports. CleanPlate scores it DA1.
Why Hatsun Curd scores DA1
Nutrition is a D because protein is 4 g per 100 g, fibre is 0 g and no vitamins are declared. Ingredients are an A with only milk and culture, and risk is a 1.
Low nutrient density

- 4 g
- Fibre

- None declared
- Energy
- 76 kcal
01 Nutrition density: why D
Protein is 4 g per 100 g, about 21% of the calories, and all of it comes from the milk. Fibre is 0 g, so the grade has little to build on.
No vitamins or minerals are declared on the panel, so nothing adds to the grade beyond protein. A light 76 kcal per 100 g does not lift it either.
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
Only pasteurized toned milk and active culture are listed. There are no additives, no sweetener, no flavour and no fat added, so nothing costs ingredient points.
The front claims check out against the list and nothing on the pack is hollow, so the grade stays at the top.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.

- Sodium
- 50 mg
- Saturated fat
- 2.5 g
- Trans fat
- 0 g
03 Load risk: why 1
Risk is the lowest grade. Saturated fat is 2.5 g per 100 g, the largest part of it, and is half the 5 g high line. Sodium is 50 mg per 100 g.
Free sugar is 0 g, since the 6 g of sugar is naturally in the milk and no sugar is added. Trans fat is 0 g and the energy adds nothing to the number.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.
