Additive Analysis
The additives used, including colors, flavor enhancers, stabilizers (INS 451(i)), and acidity regulators (INS 501(i), INS 260), are approved by FSSAI for use within permissible limits. However, the presence of numerous additives indicates that this is a highly processed food product. The primary health concerns stem from the nutritional profile rather than the additives themselves.

Marketing Claims
The marketing claims are focused on convenience, flavor profile ('Manchurian'), and emotional appeal ('mindblowing', 'I ❤️ Desi Chinese'). These claims do not mislead consumers about the health aspects of the product and are truthful regarding its nature as a quick-to-prepare instant noodle pack. The marketing is compliant with ethical standards as it avoids making unsubstantiated health claims.
