What to know about Thacker Dairy Paneer
Two-ingredient paneer: 20 g protein, 25 g fat
Thacker Dairy Paneer is a vacuum-packed 200 g paneer made from two listed ingredients, milk fat and milk solid. No percentages are declared. It is bought by people who want a plain, cookable dairy protein for curries, bhurji and grills, and who want the list kept short.
Per 100 g you get 310 kcal, 20 g protein, 25 g fat, 2.5 g carbohydrate and no sugar, plus 480 mg calcium. In a typical 50 g serve (our estimate, the pack prints none) that is 155 kcal, 10 g protein, 12.5 g fat and 240 mg calcium.
The front promises energy, protein and calcium, and the numbers back that up. It also says made from fresh and pure milk, while the list names milk fat and milk solid. CleanPlate scores it BB2.
Why Thacker Dairy Paneer scores BB2
Nutrition is a B on 20 g protein and 480 mg calcium per 100 g. Ingredients are a B for a two-item list with no additives, and risk is a 2 because only energy, at 310 kcal per 100 g, weighs on it.
Good nutrient density
- Protein
- 20 g
- Fibre
- Not declared
- Vitamins and minerals
- Calcium
- Energy
- 310 kcal
01 Nutrition density: why B
Protein is 20 g per 100 g, so a 50 g serve gives 10 g. Calcium is 480 mg per 100 g, which adds a good share to the grade.
There is no fibre, as expected from a dairy food. Energy is 310 kcal per 100 g, mostly from the 25 g of fat.
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 list is two items, milk fat and milk solid. There are no additives, no hydrogenated fat, no sweetener and no dye, so nothing costs ingredient points.
The label declares no percentages, so the split between the two cannot be read. No label promise is hollow.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.
Low risk
- Total sugar
- 0 g
03 Load risk: why 2
Sugar is 0 g and no free-sugar ingredient is listed. The only part of the risk number that registers is energy, at 310 kcal per 100 g, which gives the grade of 2.
Saturated fat and sodium are not printed on the label, so they cannot be scored. The grade rests on energy and sugar alone.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.
Red flags
No major red flags on the label.
