Alpro Natur mit Kokosnuss (Soy & Coconut Yogurt Alternative) — OKAY
Munch or Dump rates Alpro Natur mit Kokosnuss (Soy & Coconut Yogurt Alternative) by alpro OKAY — score 60/90.
A plant-based soy-and-coconut yogurt built on real bases, but it carries added sugar, a couple of acidity regulators, and a stabilizer that nudge it past clean.
Why this verdict
- Real soy and coconut bases with live yogurt cultures
- Added sugar plus a pectin stabilizer keep it from being clean
- Two acidity regulators and added calcium/vitamins push it to NOVA 4
- No artificial colors, flavor enhancers, or emulsifier stacks
Ingredients (11)
- Soy base (water, hulled soybeans 10.4%) (safe) — Whole-food protein base — water plus actual soybeans, the backbone of the product.
- Coconut milk 4.3% (coconut cream, water) (safe) — Real coconut for creaminess and fat; minimally processed.
- Sugar (moderate) — Added sugar to offset tomato acidity — small but it's still added sugar.
- tricalcium citrate (safe) — Calcium fortification to match dairy yogurt's calcium; well-tolerated mineral salt.
- Acidity regulators (sodium citrates, citric acid) (safe) — Control tartness and protein texture; common and harmless but add to the processing count.
- Stabilizer (pectin) (safe) — Plant-derived fruit fiber used to thicken; benign but a sign of formulation.
- Natural flavor (moderate) — Undefined flavoring — natural-sourced but a black box, not a whole ingredient.
- Sea Salt (safe) — Small amount for taste balance.
- Antioxidants (tocopherol-rich extract, ascorbyl fatty acid esters) (safe) — Vitamin E and a vitamin-C ester protecting the fats from going rancid; safe.
- Vitamins B12, D2 (safe) — Fortification covering nutrients plant milks lack; a genuine plus for vegans.
- Yogurt cultures (Str. thermophilus, L. bulgaricus) (safe) — Live fermentation cultures — the same probiotics in real yogurt.
