Our take

CleanPlate review

Firm tofu with 18 g protein and a short list

Pro Plant Premium Tofu lists soyabeans, purified water and coagulants. The pack is 200 g and the panel is printed per 100 g.

CleanPlate scores it BA1. The B for nutrition reflects 18 g protein and natural calcium per 100 g. The declared iron figure is not credited because the ingredients cannot supply it. The A for ingredients reflects whole or lightly processed ingredients (led by soyabeans), and almost no additives. The 1 for risk is low: sodium, free sugar and saturated fat are all modest (sodium 0 mg, free sugar 0 g, saturated fat 0 g per 100 g).

Claims vs reality

What the pack says, checked against the ingredient list and nutrition panel.

  • On the pack

    “36G PROTEIN per pack”

    Holds

    18 g per 100 g across the 200 g pack is 36 g.

  • On the pack

    “Zero Cholesterol”

    Holds

    No animal ingredient is listed and cholesterol is printed as 0.

  • On the pack

    “No Preservatives”

    Holds

    None is listed.

  • On the pack

    “Made from Non-GMO Soya”

    Be careful

    The list says soyabeans; the non-GMO status is the maker's statement and cannot be checked on the label.

How BA1 breaks down

Each grade is scored on its own. Here are the label numbers behind each one, per 100 g.

A closer look

Does the label add up?

Soyabeans, purified water and coagulants (not named).

Per 100 g: 150 kcal, 7.94 g fat, 0 g sugar, 18 g protein. Sodium, saturated fat, fibre and an added-sugar line are not printed, so the score is provisional on missing lines. The panel's iron figure (14 mg per 100 g) is about three times what the soyabeans could supply, so it is not credited. Atwater energy (150 kcal) matches the declared 150 kcal.

Ingredients to watch

  • Missing panel linesWorth watching

    Sodium, saturated fat and added sugar are not declared as lines, which costs 4 label points.

  • Declared ironWorth watching

    14 mg per 100 g is not credited because the ingredients cannot supply it.

  • ProteinFine

    18 g per 100 g, with 256 mg of calcium.

  • IngredientsFine

    Soyabeans and water, with a coagulant, and no additive that costs points.

Common misconceptions

Myth: "Tofu is only a vegetarian filler"

At 18 g per 100 g it is close to paneer by weight.

Myth: "The coagulant is an additive to avoid"

The pack does not name it; tofu needs one, and it costs no points here.

  • Diabetes or prediabetesA good choice

Smarter ways to eat it

Pan-sear with little oil

Cubes browned in a teaspoon of oil keep the fat near the 7.9 g already in the block.

Add to a vegetable curry

It takes up the spices and adds about 9 g of protein to a 50 g serve.
