FUEL10K High Protein Chocolate Porridge Oat Cereal Pot nutrition

Figures from the nutrition panel on Tesco’s product page, collected by Boone. Free sugar estimated by Boone. Last checked 17 October 2026. Data checks are led by Murray Dare.

Fuel10K’s own website has no nutrition labels, so the figures are from Tesco. The label gives figures for the made-up pot only, so Boone converts them to per 100g of the dry pot as sold. Figures are for the dry oats as sold, before milk or water.
