Additive Analysis
The additives used, including flavour enhancers (627, 631) and antioxidant (319), are approved by FSSAI. However, the combination of iodised salt and sodium-based additives contributes to an extremely high sodium level, which poses the most significant health risk. Flavour enhancers may cause sensitivity in some individuals.

Marketing Claims
The claim 'No added preservatives' is questionable as the ingredient list includes 'Antioxidant - 319' (TBHQ), which functions as a preservative. The '100% Real vegetables' claim, while technically true for the dehydrated vegetables used, may be perceived as misleading given the small quantity and the prominent fresh vegetable imagery on the packaging.
