Storia 100% Tender Coconut Water 1L — BULLSHIT
Munch or Dump rates Storia 100% Tender Coconut Water 1L by Storia Foods & Beverages BULLSHIT — score 0/90.
The 100% and 100% Natural front-label claims directly contradict the ingredient list: this is reconstituted water with just 9.6% coconut water concentrate plus a chemical preservative. India's consumer watchdog fined Storia for exactly this.
Why this verdict
- Front label says 100% and 100% Natural but it is only 9.6% coconut water concentrate reconstituted with water
- Contains Class II preservative INS 202 (potassium sorbate), which flatly kills any Natural claim
- Made from concentrate, not fresh tender coconut water as the imagery implies
- India's CCPA fined Storia in 2025 for these exact misleading 100% claims
Ingredients (3)
- Water (safe) — Added back as a filler/texture agent; harmless but dilutes.
- Coconut Water Concentrate (9.6%) (safe) — Genuine coconut water, but concentrated and reconstituted rather than fresh, and only a small fraction of the drink.
- Class II Preservative (INS 202, Potassium Sorbate) (moderate) — A synthetic preservative that extends shelf life. Generally recognized as safe in small amounts, but its presence makes the 100% Natural claim false.
