What to know about Mille Sama Kutki/Little Millet
One-ingredient little millet, modest protein and fibre
Mille Sama Kutki, or Little Millet, is a 500 g pack of a single ingredient: 100% little millet, sold unpolished and toasted. It is made by the makers of Slurrp Farm and aimed at people who want a rice substitute for khichdi, pulao or idli, and at those who keep fasts.
Per 100 g of dry grain you get 362 kcal, 8 g protein, 8 g fibre, 6 g fat and 60 g carbohydrate, with 0 g sugar and 0 g saturated fat. The pack suggests a 50 g serve, ten to a pack, which works out to 181 kcal, 4 g protein and 4 g fibre.
The name and front of pack get the basics right: it is unpolished, it is one grain, and the protein and fibre figures match the nutrition table. The back-of-pack health promises go further than the label can back, especially Low GI with no tested value shown. CleanPlate scores it CA2.
Why Mille Sama Kutki/Little Millet scores CA2
Ingredients are an A for a single whole grain with no additives. Nutrition is a C on 8 g protein and 8 g fibre per 100 g with no vitamins declared, and risk is a 2, set only by 362 kcal per 100 g.
Adequate nutrient density
- Protein
- 8 g
- Fibre
- 8 g
- Vitamins and minerals
- None declared
- Energy
- 362 kcal
01 Nutrition density: why C
Protein is 8 g per 100 g and fibre is 8 g per 100 g, so a 50 g serve gives 4 g of each. The protein is modest for the calories, which holds the grade at a C.
No vitamins or minerals are declared on the panel, so nothing else adds to the grade.
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 one ingredient, 100% little millet, a whole grain with no additives, no sweetener and no added fat. That is why this axis is an A.
The only deduction is a small one: Low GI is claimed on the pack with no tested GI value shown, which costs ingredient points.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.
Low risk
- Added sugar
- 0 g
- Sodium
- 0 mg
- Saturated fat
- 0 g
- Trans fat
- 0 g
03 Load risk: why 2
Sugar, saturated fat, trans fat and sodium are all declared as 0, so none of them moves the risk number. The 2 comes from energy alone: 362 kcal per 100 g of dry grain, 181 kcal in a 50 g serve.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.
