Nutritional Summary
The product receives a poor rating primarily due to its extremely high sodium content per serving (347.82 mg), which is a significant portion of the daily recommended limit. The total fat content is also high for a snack of this serving size. While it offers a good amount of dietary fiber, the health drawbacks from sodium and fat, along with the use of flavour enhancers, outweigh the benefits.

Additive Analysis
The additives used, including Acidity Regulator (INS 330), Flavour Enhancers (INS 627, 631), Anti-caking Agent (INS 551), and Natural Colour (INS 100(ii)), are generally considered safe for consumption within permissible limits as per FSSAI. However, some individuals may be sensitive to flavour enhancers like MSG-related compounds (627, 631).

Marketing Claims
The marketing is largely thematic ('Devil Popcorn', 'Hot 'N' Spicy'). However, the nutritional panel claims '0 g Added Sugars' while the ingredients list clearly states 'Refined Sugar powder' as the fourth ingredient. This is a significant contradiction and could be misleading to consumers who rely on the 'Added Sugars' line for quick assessment. The term 'Gourmet' is subjective but implies high quality, which could be debated given the high sodium and use of flavour enhancers.
