Our take
CleanPlate reviewA curd dip, mostly curd with a little garlic
Wingreens Dill Tzatziki is 94.6% curd with garlic, salt, dill (0.6%) and black pepper. Two preservatives, sorbic acid and sodium benzoate, keep it on the shelf. No cucumber is listed.
CleanPlate scores it EA3. The E for nutrition is low: almost no credited protein, fibre or micronutrients per 100 g. The A for ingredients reflects whole or lightly processed ingredients (led by curd, garlic and dill and black pepper), and almost no additives. The 3 for risk comes mainly from sodium (429 mg per 100 g) and saturated fat (4 g per 100 g).

Common misconceptions
Myth: "A dip made from curd is high in protein"
It has 3.7 g of protein per 100 g, which is that of curd diluted with fat; it is a topping, not a protein source.
Myth: "Preservatives mean it is unhealthy"
Sorbic acid and benzoate are the usual ones for fresh dips and we do not deduct points for them here.
