Nutritional Summary
The product is low in sugar and free from trans-fat. However, the score is lowered to 'AVERAGE' due to the high sodium content (118.3 mg) for a very small 12g serving, which is nearly 6% of the daily recommended allowance. The presence of flavour enhancers (INS 627, INS 631) and the misleading 'High Protein' claim also detract from its overall health profile.

Additive Analysis
The additives used, including anticaking agent INS 551 and flavour enhancers INS 627 and INS 631, are approved by FSSAI for use within specified limits. However, flavour enhancers can cause sensitivity in some individuals. The use of 'Nature Identical' flavours is a common practice but is less desirable than purely natural flavouring.

Marketing Claims
Claims like 'Gluten Free', 'Zero Cholesterol', and 'Never Fried' are accurate. However, the 'High Protein' claim is misleading, as the product provides only 0.9g of protein per serving, which is not considered high. The term 'Super Healthy' is subjective puffery. While 'Goodness of Olive Oil' is highlighted, the seasoning mix contains multiple processed ingredients like maltodextrin and flavour enhancers, which contradicts the overarching healthy image.
