Nutritional Summary
The product scores very poorly due to its extremely high sugar and saturated fat content per serving. A small 20g serving contains over 10g of sugar, which is more than 20% of the FSSAI's recommended daily intake. The primary ingredient is sugar, and it offers negligible protein and fiber, making it an energy-dense but nutrient-poor food. The use of palm oil and hydrogenated vegetable fat further lowers its health score.

Healthy Recipe Ideas
Banana Roti Roll-up
Take one whole-wheat roti or chapati. Spread a very thin layer (about one teaspoon) of Hershey's spread. Place sliced bananas in the center and roll it up tightly. Cut into bite-sized pieces for an easy snack.
Health Benefits
This adds fiber from whole wheat and potassium from bananas, making it a more balanced treat.
Hint-of-Chocolate Oatmeal
Prepare a bowl of plain, unsweetened oatmeal. Stir in half a teaspoon of the cocoa spread to add flavor and a hint of sweetness. Top with a handful of almonds and a few berries.
Health Benefits
Enhances a high-fiber breakfast with flavor while controlling the portion, with added protein and healthy fats from nuts.
Additive Analysis
The additives used, such as Emulsifier (322) and Vanillin, are approved by FSSAI and generally considered safe for consumption. The primary health concerns arise from the product's core nutritional profile (high sugar and fat) rather than the additives themselves.

Marketing Claims
The marketing is compliant and not misleading. The product is accurately presented as a 'Cocoa Spread'. It does not make any unsubstantiated health claims. The branding focuses on taste and usage rather than nutritional benefits, which is appropriate for this type of confectionery product.
