01 Nutrition density: why C

Protein is 12 g per 100 g and fibre is 9 g, both coming from the whole grain. That is a solid fibre figure for a staple, but protein is modest against 330 kcal, so the grade stays in the middle.

No vitamins or minerals are declared, so nothing extra adds to the 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 one ingredient: whole wheat flour (100%). There are no additives, no added oil, no sweetener and no flavouring, so nothing costs ingredient points.

The pack's promises (no maida, zero oil, no preservatives, 100% whole wheat) all match the list, so there is no label penalty.

Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.

03 Load risk: why 2

Energy is what sets the risk grade: 330 kcal per 100 g. Added sugar is 0 g, saturated fat is 0.6 g and sodium is 6 mg, all far below the high lines.

Trans fat is declared as 0 g and no hydrogenated fat is listed. Risk is a 2 because a calorie-dense dry staple has no other load to carry.

Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.

Does Yu 100% Whole Wheat Fusilli Pasta live up to its claims?

Every claim checked holds: the list is whole wheat flour alone, no oil or preservative is listed, and 9 g fibre per 100 g supports the high-fibre claim. The wellness wording is framing.

  • On the pack

    “100% whole wheat fusilli”

    Holds

    The ingredient list is Whole Wheat Flour (100%) and nothing else.

  • Product name

    “Zero oil”

    Holds

    No oil is listed. The 3.3 g fat per 100 g comes from the wheat itself.

  • On the pack

    “Zero preservatives”

    Holds

    No preservative or other additive is listed; the only ingredient is whole wheat flour.

  • Retail listing

    “High in fibre”

    Holds

    9 g fibre per 100 g, about 7 g in a typical 80 g dry serve.

  • On the pack

    “Simply better for you”

    Be careful

    The whole wheat base and 9 g fibre are real, but it still carries 330 kcal and 63 g carbohydrate per 100 g, so portion size still matters.

What's in Yu 100% Whole Wheat Fusilli Pasta?

Whole wheat flour (100%) is the entire list, so there are no additives, oils or sweeteners to watch. Energy and portion size are the only points to keep in mind.

How we rate additives →

1 ingredient listed. None of them is an additive or watched ingredient in our research.

The ingredient list, read for you

The list has one item, whole wheat flour at 100%. It provides the starch, the 12 g protein per 100 g and the fibre, and the bran is why the fibre is higher than in a refined flour pasta. There is no oil, salt, colour, flavour or preservative to read past.

Ingredients to watch

  • EnergyWorth watching

    330 kcal per 100 g dry, about 264 kcal in a typical 80 g serve before any sauce. This is what sets the risk grade.

  • CarbohydrateWorth watching

    63 g per 100 g, of which total sugar is 4.5 g and added sugar is 0 g. Worth a modest serve for anyone watching blood sugar.

  • WheatWorth watching

    The pack states it contains wheat, so it is not suitable for anyone avoiding wheat or gluten.

  • Whole wheat flour onlyFine

    A single ingredient at 100%, with no additives, oil or preservatives.

  • Fibre and sodiumFine

    9 g fibre per 100 g and only 6 mg sodium.

Recipes with Yu 100% Whole Wheat Fusilli Pasta

Toss it with vegetables, dal or paneer, or make a pasta salad. Each adds protein or vegetables to the 12 g protein the pasta already has.

Vegetable fusilli

Toss the cooked spirals with sautéed seasonal vegetables and a little garlic, so the meal adds vegetables to the 9 g fibre per 100 g in the pasta.

Paneer or egg pasta bowl

Add cubes of paneer or a boiled egg to lift a plate that starts at 12 g protein per 100 g of dry pasta.

Cold pasta salad

Mix cooled fusilli with cucumber, tomato and chickpeas and a lemon dressing; the pasta itself adds only 6 mg sodium per 100 g.

Creamy comfort bowl

Use a light white sauce and keep the serve near 80 g dry, since the sauce, not the pasta, brings most of the salt and fat.
