What to know about Urban Platter Unsweetened Coconut Milk
Two clean ingredients, 17 g saturated fat per 100 ml
A 250 ml Tetra Pak of coconut milk made from coconut cream (80%) and water, with nothing else in the list. It is bought for curries, soups, desserts, puddings and smoothies, by cooks who want a plant-based, lactose-free way to get a thick, creamy base.
The pack's serve is 100 ml, and the pack holds two and a half of them. One serve gives 180 kcal, 18 g fat of which 17 g is saturated, 2 g protein, 1 g sugar (none of it added) and 20 mg sodium. There is no fibre. The whole pack comes to 450 kcal.
The front says Unsweetened, Additive Free and about 18% fat, and the panel agrees with all three. What the name does not tell you is how rich it is: this is closer to a cream than to a drinking milk. CleanPlate scores it EA4.
Why Urban Platter Unsweetened Coconut Milk scores EA4
Nutrition is an E because the milk is nearly all fat, with 2 g protein and no fibre per 100 ml. Ingredients are an A on a two-item list. Risk is a 4 on 17 g saturated fat.
Very low nutrient density
- Protein
- 2 g
- Fibre
- 0 g
- Vitamins and minerals
- None declared
- Energy
- 180 kcal
01 Nutrition density: why E
Protein is 2 g per 100 ml, about 4% of the calories, and fibre is 0 g. Almost all the energy is fat: 18 g of the 180 kcal comes in as fat, which earns no credit.
No vitamins or minerals are declared, so nothing lifts the grade. That leaves nutrition at the lowest 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 coconut cream (80%) and water. There are no additives, no sweeteners and no flavouring, and the claims on the pack match what is in it, so nothing costs ingredient points.
No hydrogenated fat is listed, and trans fat is declared as 0 g.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.
High risk
- Added sugar
- 0 g
- Sodium
- 20 mg
- Saturated fat
- 17 g
- Trans fat
- 0 g
03 Load risk: why 4
Saturated fat drives the risk number: 17 g per 100 ml, more than three times the 5 g high line. Energy at 180 kcal per 100 ml adds to it.
Added sugar is 0 g and sodium is 20 mg per 100 ml, so neither plays a real part. One 100 ml serve is the whole of the saturated fat problem.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.
