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 approximately 40% of the FSSAI's recommended daily intake for added sugar. While it is low in sodium and free of trans fats, the excessive sugar makes it an unhealthy choice for regular consumption and firmly places it in the confectionery category.

Additive Analysis
The additives used, Soy Lecithin (E322) as an emulsifier and Antioxidant (E319 - TBHQ) as a preservative, are approved by FSSAI for use within specified limits. While high consumption of E319 can be a concern, its level in this product is expected to be within safe regulatory standards. The use of nature-identical flavors is also permitted. Overall risk is considered low.

Marketing Claims
The claims 'Non-GMO', 'Gluten Free', and 'No Trans Fat' are factually supported by the nutritional panel and ingredient list. However, the use of terms like 'Gourmet' and 'Himalayan Salt' creates a premium 'health halo' that is misleading. The product's primary ingredient is sugar, making it a high-sugar confectionery item, not a healthy snack. The marketing focuses on premium aspects while obscuring the very poor nutritional profile, which is ethically questionable.
