Nutritional Summary
The product receives a 'POOR' rating primarily due to its extremely high sugar content. Sugar is the main ingredient (52%), and a single 28g serving contains 10g of sugar, which is 20% of the FSSAI's recommended daily allowance. Despite being low in sodium and free of trans fat, the excessive sugar makes it an unhealthy choice for regular consumption.

Healthy Recipe Ideas
Balanced Caramel Popcorn Trail Mix
In a bowl, combine a small handful of caramel popcorn with a mix of unsalted almonds, walnuts, and pumpkin seeds. Mix well for a balanced snack.
Health Benefits
Adds healthy fats, protein, and fiber from nuts and seeds to partially offset the high sugar content.
Yogurt Parfait with Caramel Crunch
Layer a glass with plain Greek yogurt and fresh berries. Crush a few pieces of caramel popcorn and sprinkle on top for a crunchy finish. Use sparingly as a topping.
Health Benefits
Provides protein from yogurt and vitamins from fruit, using the popcorn as a limited treat for texture.
Additive Analysis
The additives used, including Soy Lecithin (E322), Antioxidant (E319), Acidity Regulator (E330), and Antifoaming Agent (E900), are all permitted under FSSAI regulations within specified limits. While generally considered safe at these levels, the primary health concern with this product is its extremely high sugar content, not the additives.

Marketing Claims
The marketing creates a 'health halo' by emphasizing claims like 'Gluten Free,' 'No Trans Fat,' and 'Air Popped.' However, this is misleading as it distracts from the fact that the product's primary ingredient is sugar (52%). The prominent 'Himalayan Salt' claim is for an ingredient that makes up only 1% of the product. While technically compliant on individual claims, the overall impression deceptively positions a high-sugar confection as a wholesome snack.
