CleanPlate review

Corn and cheese momos with margarine in the filling

Wow! Momo Corn & Cheese Momos is a frozen veg momo pack with a sauce sachet, marked veg. The front says 10 pieces and the back says 20; 10 pieces is recorded and the per 100 g panel is unaffected.

CleanPlate scores it DB3. The D for nutrition is low: only 7.92 g protein per 100 g and little else credited. The B for ingredients reflects mostly refined or industrial ingredients (led by corn, cheese and refined wheat flour), with additives that cost points: flavouring, calcium carbonate, silicon dioxide and a flavour enhancer. The 3 for risk comes mainly from sodium (523 mg per 100 g) and saturated fat (4.28 g per 100 g).

Claims vs reality

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

  • On the pack

    “No preservatives”

    Holds

    No preservative is listed.

  • On the pack

    “No added MSG”

    Partly true

    No INS 621 is listed, but flavour enhancers INS 627 and 631 are, which work with glutamate.

  • On the pack

    “Made with fresh & exotic veggies”

    Be careful

    Corn and capsicum are in the list, but vegetables are not the first ingredient.
