Kellogg's Chocos Multigrain Moons & Stars Chocos
Published · Updated
Kellogg's Chocos Multigrain Moons & Stars is a chocolate-flavoured breakfast cereal made mostly from wheat, corn, ragi and jowar flour. It scores [F][L]BB4: nutrition rests on fibre and added vitamins and minerals, ingredients lose points for a high protein claim the numbers do not support and a small cocoa share, and risk is high because of added sugar. Keep it as an occasional bowl.

What to know about Kellogg's Chocos Multigrain Moons & Stars Chocos
Multigrain cereal with 27 g added sugar
Kellogg's Chocos Multigrain Moons & Stars is a chocolate-flavoured breakfast cereal in moon and star shapes, sold in a 168 g pack. It is built on a multigrain flour mix (65%) of wheat atta (45%), corn meal (10%), ragi (5%) and jowar (5%), then sugar and cocoa solids (4.9%). It is bought mainly by parents looking for a children's cereal that sounds more wholesome than plain chocolate cereal.
A 30 g serve gives 112 kcal, 2.6 g protein, 2.1 g fibre, 8.1 g added sugar and 72 mg sodium. Per 100 g that is 374 kcal, 8.6 g protein, 7 g fibre, 27 g added sugar and 240 mg sodium. The cost is mostly sugar. Iron, calcium, zinc and several vitamins are added, which lifts the nutrition grade.
The pack says Multigrain and No Maida, and the list backs both. It also says High Protein & High Fibre, and the protein figure does not reach that level, while the Chocolatey tag rests on 4.9% cocoa solids. Those two points set the [L] flag. CleanPlate scores it [F][L]BB4.
Does Kellogg's Chocos Multigrain Moons & Stars Chocos live up to its claims?
Multigrain and No Maida hold. High Protein fails at 8.6 g protein per 100 g, and Sooo Chocolatey rests on only 4.9% cocoa solids.
- On the packMisleading
“High Protein & High Fibre”
Fibre is real at 7 g per 100 g, but protein is only 8.6 g per 100 g, 2.3 g per 100 kcal, below the level needed to call a food high in protein.
- On the packPartly true
“Sooo Chocolatey”
Cocoa solids are a real ingredient but only 4.9%. Colour (150d) and cream-type flavouring add to the chocolate look and taste.
- On the packHolds
“Multigrain, No Maida”
The flour mix is 65%: wheat atta 45%, corn 10%, ragi 5% and jowar 5%. No maida is listed. Wheat is by far the largest grain.
- On the packBe careful
“Power of 5 Nutrients”
The pack compares one 30 g serve to a roti, a banana, spinach, milk and an apple. Much of the iron, calcium and vitamins is added, and the pack says it is not a replacement for those foods.
- Retail listingBe careful
“Zinc 2.6 mg per 100 g”
The retailer page shows zinc 2.6 mg per 100 g, the pack shows 2.0 mg. It is a small figure and does not move the grade.
Why Kellogg's Chocos Multigrain Moons & Stars Chocos scores [L][F]BB4
Nutrition is a B on 7 g fibre per 100 g and added vitamins and minerals, ingredients are a B after label-integrity costs, and risk is a 4 because added sugar is 27 g per 100 g.

- Energy
- 374 kcal
01 Nutrition density: why B
Fibre is 7 g per 100 g and protein is 8.6 g, which is 2.3 g per 100 kcal. Most of the protein comes from wheat atta, so the protein credit is modest.
Iron, calcium, zinc, vitamin C and vitamins B1, B2, B3, B6, B12 and folate are added, and that micronutrient bonus lifts the grade. Without the fortification it would be a C.
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 base is good for a cereal: a multigrain flour mix at 65%, with wheat atta 45%, corn meal 10%, ragi 5% and jowar 5%. Sugar comes next, then cocoa solids at 4.9%.
Flavouring (nature-identical and artificial) costs ingredient points, and sulphite ammonia caramel colour (150d) costs more. The tocopherol antioxidant (307b) costs nothing.
Label integrity costs further points. Only 4.9% cocoa sits behind the chocolatey promise, and the High Protein claim is not supported by 8.6 g protein per 100 g. These two set the [L] flag.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.
High risk
- Added sugar
- 27 g
- Sodium
- 240 mg
- Saturated fat
- 1.3 g
- Trans fat
- 0 g
03 Load risk: why 4
Added sugar is the main driver: 27 g per 100 g, about 8.1 g in a 30 g serve. It accounts for more than half of the risk load.
Sodium at 240 mg per 100 g and energy at 374 kcal add smaller amounts. Saturated fat is 1.3 g and trans fat is 0 g, so they play little part.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.
[F] Added vitamins or minerals meaningfully lift this product's nutrition grade. Without them it would score lower.
[L] The name or pack claims promise more than the ingredient list delivers. See Claims vs reality.

What's in Kellogg's Chocos Multigrain Moons & Stars Chocos?
A multigrain flour mix leads at 65%, followed by sugar and a small share of cocoa. Watch the sugar, the caramel colour and the flavouring.
The ingredient list, read for you
A multigrain flour mix (65%) leads: wheat atta (45%), corn meal (10%), ragi (5%) and jowar (5%). Sugar is second, so it is the second-largest ingredient after the grains. Cocoa solids (4.9%) give the chocolate taste and brown colour, with caramel colour (150d) adding to it.
Minerals and vitamins are added without being named in the list. Cereal extract, iodized salt, flavouring (nature-identical and artificial, cream) and a tocopherol antioxidant (307b) finish the list. It contains wheat and barley and may contain soy, milk, oats and nuts.
Ingredients to watch

- Caramel colour (150d)Worth watching
Sulphite ammonia caramel is a colour that costs ingredient points. It gives the chocolate shade alongside 4.9% cocoa.

7 g per 100 g, about 2.1 g in a 30 g serve, from the multigrain flour mix.
What it doesn’t have
