Healthy Recipe Ideas
Potazos Raita Crunch
1. Whisk 1 cup of thick yogurt (dahi) until smooth. 2. Mix in finely chopped onion, tomato, and a pinch of chaat masala. 3. Coarsely crush 4-5 Potazos biscuits. 4. Sprinkle the crushed biscuits over the yogurt dip just before serving for maximum crunch.
Health Benefits
Balances the processed snack with protein and probiotics from yogurt, adding fresh vegetables for nutrients.
Spicy Potazos Bhel
1. Prepare a standard bhel mix with puffed rice, boiled potato cubes, chopped onion, and tomato. 2. Add tamarind and mint chutneys and mix well. 3. Instead of sev, crush a handful of Potazos biscuits and add them to the bhel. 4. Garnish with coriander and serve immediately.
Health Benefits
Incorporates the biscuit into a larger, more balanced snack with fiber from puffed rice and fresh vegetables.
Additive Analysis
The product contains a high number of additives. The artificial colour (110) is permitted by FSSAI but is controversial and linked to hyperactivity in some children. Flavour enhancers (627, 631) can cause reactions in sensitive individuals. The overall additive load is high for a snack product, posing a moderate risk for regular consumption, especially for children.

Marketing Claims
The '0% Trans Fat' claim is factually correct as per the nutritional label. However, the product name 'Potazos' and imagery of potatoes could mislead consumers into believing it is a potato-based snack like chips, when its primary ingredient is refined wheat flour (Maida), with potato flakes being a minor ingredient (11.3%). This positions a flour-based biscuit as a potato snack, which is questionable.
