Nutritional Summary
The product scores as 'AVERAGE' due to its high sodium (161mg) and fat (7g) content per serving, which are significant portions of the daily recommended intake for a snack. While it benefits from being low in sugar, free of trans fat, and containing some dietary fiber, its highly processed nature and use of flavour enhancers prevent a higher rating. It is best consumed in moderation as a discretionary food item.

Loaded Nacho Chaat
1. Lightly crush a handful of Cornitos nachos onto a plate. 2. Top with a mix of chopped onions, tomatoes, cucumber, and boiled chickpeas. 3. Drizzle with low-fat yogurt and a tangy mint-coriander chutney. 4. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and a squeeze of lime.
Health Benefits
This transforms the snack into a more balanced meal by adding fresh vegetables, protein, and fiber.
Quick Baked Salsa Nachos

Additive Analysis
The additives used, including Acidity Regulator (INS 270), Anticaking Agent (INS 551), and Flavour Enhancers (INS 627, INS 631), are approved by FSSAI and generally considered safe within prescribed limits. However, the presence of flavour enhancers suggests a highly processed product, and consumers sensitive to such additives should be mindful.

Marketing Claims
The claims 'Gluten Free', 'Non-GMO', 'Zero Trans Fat', and 'Cholesterol Free' are factually supported by the nutritional panel and ingredient list. However, the primary 'Cheese and Herbs' marketing is based on minimal quantities of actual cheese (0.7%) and herbs (total 0.4%). The flavour is heavily reliant on 'Nature Identical' flavours and enhancers, which could be misleading for consumers expecting a product flavoured predominantly with natural ingredients.
