Marketing Claims
The marketing claims are primarily sensory and descriptive ('irresistibly light', 'Red Chilli flavor') rather than making health or nutritional assertions. The use of an asterisk to qualify the term 'light' with a reference to a consumer study is a compliant practice. The marketing is not misleading about the product's nature as a processed savory snack.
