Our take

CleanPlate review

A protein wafer with hydrogenated coconut fat.

Yoga Bar Strawberry Pop is a protein wafer made from fermented yeast protein and milk solids, sweetened with maltitol, with coconut oil and hydrogenated coconut fat.

CleanPlate scores it [R][L]BD3. The B for nutrition reflects 25 g of protein and 7.5 g of fibre. The D for ingredients carries a red flag for hydrogenated coconut fat that the label doesn't confirm as fully hydrogenated, and a misleading-label flag for "strawberry" with no strawberry. The 3 for risk comes from saturated fat.

Claims vs reality

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

  • Product name

    “Strawberry Pop”

    Misleading

    No strawberry is listed; the taste comes from nature-identical flavours.

  • Product name

    “10g Protein”

    Holds

    25 g per 100 g, 21% of calories, so about 10 g in a 40 g bar.

solid protein (25g) and zero added sugar, but very high total fat (26g/100g) and very high saturated/lauric fat (~18g/100g) drag down the nutrient score

moderate-high risk driven by high energy density (468kcal) and very high saturated fat share, offset by low sugar

Scored on added sugar, sodium and saturated fat, with a penalty for trans fat.

[R] Contains an ingredient on our red-flag list (such as a partially hydrogenated oil or a flagged synthetic dye), which cuts the ingredient grade.

[L] The name or pack claims promise more than the ingredient list delivers. See Claims vs reality.

A closer look

Does the label add up?

The list is a protein blend (fermented yeast protein, milk solids), maltitol, a multigrain blend (whole wheat, jowar), coconut oil, hydrogenated coconut fat, flavouring, lecithin, starch, salt and enzyme. Trans fat is declared as 0 g.

Per 100 g: 468 kcal, 25 g protein, 7.5 g fibre, 25 g polyols, 0 g added sugar, 26 g fat (18.25 g saturated) and 443 mg sodium. The page summary listed fat as 8.8 g, which conflicts with the per-serving panel.

Ingredients to watch

  • Hydrogenated fat (type not stated)Concern

    The label doesn't say whether this fat is fully or partially hydrogenated. Partial hydrogenation creates trans fat, and a 0 g trans fat line can still hide small amounts, so we treat it as partially hydrogenated until the maker confirms otherwise.

  • Saturated fatConcern

    18.25 g per 100 g, more than a third of the calories, from coconut oil and hydrogenated coconut fat.

  • MaltitolWorth watching

    25 g per 100 g. Can cause bloating.

  • Label inconsistencyWorth watching

    Fat figures differ between the page summary and the panel.

Common misconceptions

Myth: "Strawberry means real fruit"

No strawberry is listed. The flavour is nature-identical.

Myth: "Sugar-free means healthy"

Saturated fat is very high.
