Our take

CleanPlate review

A high-protein muesli with hydrogenated palm oil in its chocolate

Tata Soulfull Ultimate Millet Muesli Hi-Protein Dark Choco is oats, jowar, ragi and brown rice flakes (50%), soy nuggets and isolate (20%), chocolate (13%) made with sugar, hydrogenated palm oil, cocoa and emulsifiers, sugar, rice flour, rice bran oil, almonds (1.5%), jaggery, date syrup, sweetened cranberry (1%), flavouring, an anticaking agent and the antioxidants tocopherol and BHA.

CleanPlate scores it [R]BD3. The B for nutrition reflects 24 g protein and 9.5 g fibre per 100 g. The D for ingredients reflects mostly refined or industrial ingredients (led by rolled oats, millets and brown rice flakes), with additives that cost points: BHA, flavouring, calcium carbonate and pgpr. A red flag (hydrogenated fat / vanaspati (unqualified)) cuts the score by 40%. The 3 for risk comes mainly from free sugar (14.4 g per 100 g) and saturated fat (4.9 g per 100 g).

Claims vs reality

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

  • On the pack

    “Hi-Protein, 24 g Plant Protein”

    Holds

    Be careful

    Per serve with 200 ml whole milk; the muesli alone gives 12 g.

A closer look

Does the label add up?

Oats (22%), jowar and ragi (16%), brown rice flakes; soy nuggets and isolate (20%); chocolate (13%) of sugar, hydrogenated palm oil, cocoa, emulsifiers 322(i) and 476, natural flavouring; sugar, rice flour, rice bran oil, almond (1.5%), jaggery, date syrup, sweetened cranberry (1%), nature-identical flavour, 170(i), 307b, 320.

Per 100 g: 421 kcal, 8.6 g fat of which 4.9 g saturated, 15.2 g sugar of which 14.4 g added, 9.5 g fibre, 24 g protein and 282 mg sodium.

Ingredients to watch

  • Hydrogenated oilConcern

    Unqualified hydrogenated palm oil in the chocolate.

  • AdditivesWorth watching

    BHA (320) and PGPR (476).

  • ProteinFine

    24 g per 100 g from soy.

Common misconceptions

Myth: "25 g protein means a protein shake in a bowl"

The figure is per 100 g; a 40 to 50 g serve gives 10 to 13 g, about a quarter of a day's need.

Myth: "0 g trans fat means none"

Labels can round small amounts to zero; the ingredient list is the better guide.
