What to know about Wonderland Foods Mazafati Black Dates
One ingredient, and 60 g of natural sugar
Wonderland Foods Mazafati Black Dates (Khajur) is a 400 g resealable pack of soft, moist dates from the U.A.E. The ingredient list has one line: Mazafati dates, with no percentage needed. It is bought as a ready sweet snack, a natural sweetener for baking and oatmeal, and a source of quick energy.
Per 100 g the dates give 277 kcal, 74 g carbohydrate, 60 g sugar, 8 g fibre, 3 g protein, 0.4 g fat and 2 mg sodium. Potassium is 655 mg and iron 5 mg. In the pack's 30 g serve that is about 83 kcal, 18 g sugar, 2.4 g fibre and 197 mg potassium.
The front says no added sugar and no added preservatives, and the list backs both: nothing but dates. The sugar is the fruit's own, and it is still a lot of sugar. The health-benefit lines on the back are general. CleanPlate scores it AA2.
Why Wonderland Foods Mazafati Black Dates scores AA2
Nutrition and ingredients are both an A: fibre and minerals carry the first, and a single plain ingredient carries the second. Risk is a 2, set by energy at 277 kcal per 100 g, with no added sugar and almost no sodium.
Exceptional nutrient density

- Energy
- 277 kcal
01 Nutrition density: why A
Fibre is 8 g per 100 g, 2.4 g in a 30 g serve. Potassium is 655 mg and iron 5 mg per 100 g, and these minerals add more to the grade than the macros do.
Protein is only 3 g per 100 g, and fat is 0.4 g with no saturated fat, so the grade rests on fibre and minerals, not protein.
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.

03 Load risk: why 2
Free sugar is scored as 0 g because no sugar ingredient is listed. The 60 g of sugar per 100 g comes from the fruit itself, so it does not drive the risk number.
Saturated fat is 0 g, trans fat 0 g and sodium 2 mg per 100 g. The 277 kcal per 100 g of energy sets the floor, which lands on a 2.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.
