What to know about Humpy A2 Paneer
Two ingredients, 18 g protein, and plenty of saturated fat
Humpy A2 Paneer is a 200 g block of full-cream paneer made from just two ingredients: desi cow A2 milk and lemon juice. It is sold to people who want paneer that tastes like the homemade kind, set with lemon rather than a synthetic acid. No percentages are declared for either ingredient.
Per 100 g you get 287 kcal, 18 g protein, 2 g carbohydrate and 23 g fat, of which 14.7 g is saturated. Calcium is 400 mg and vitamin A is 200 mcg. Sodium is low at 100 mg and there is no sugar. The pack counts 100 g as one serving, so the block is two servings.
The name and the pack match the list: the milk is named as desi cow A2 milk, lemon juice is the only acid, and no preservative or additive appears. The trade-off is the fat, which comes from the full-cream milk. CleanPlate scores it AA3.
Why Humpy A2 Paneer scores AA3
Nutrition and ingredients are both an A: 18 g protein, 400 mg calcium and a two-item list with no additives. Risk is a 3 because saturated fat is 14.7 g per 100 g.
Exceptional nutrient density

- Fibre
- Not declared
- Vitamins and minerals
- Calcium, Vitamin A
- Energy
- 287 kcal
01 Nutrition density: why A
Protein is 18 g per 100 g, about a quarter of the calories, and the largest share comes from the milk itself. Carbohydrate is just 2 g, and there is no sugar.
Calcium at 400 mg and vitamin A at 200 mcg earn a micronutrient bonus on top of the protein credit, which lifts the grade to the top band.
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 two ingredients are listed, desi cow A2 milk and lemon juice, so there are no additives, no hydrogenated fat, no sweetener and no flavouring to cost ingredient points.
Nothing on the front or back of the pack is a hollow promise: the claims match the list, so there is no label-integrity penalty.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.
Moderate risk
- Sodium
- 100 mg
- Saturated fat
- 14.7 g
- Trans fat
- 1 g
03 Load risk: why 3
Saturated fat is nearly all of the risk number: 14.7 g per 100 g, almost three times the 5 g high line. That is what puts risk at a 3.
Sodium is low at 100 mg per 100 g and sugar is 0 g. Energy is 287 kcal per 100 g and adds only a little. Trans fat is declared at 1 g, but no hydrogenated fat is listed, so the figure is accepted as printed and adds nothing to the risk number.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.
