Additive Analysis
The product contains multiple additives including flavour enhancers (627, 631) and acidity regulators. While these are permitted by FSSAI within specified limits, their presence in a highly processed snack is a concern for frequent consumption. The color used (160c) is of natural origin.

Marketing Claims
The claim 'Made with Corn, Rice & Dal' is factually correct but creates a misleading health halo, distracting from the fact that the product is high in fat, sodium, and is highly processed. The marketing focuses on taste and fun, which underplays the product's poor nutritional profile.
