Marketing Claims
The marketing claims focus on the taste, flavor, and texture of the product ('Red Chilli Flavor', 'irresistibly light chip') and do not make any misleading health or nutritional claims. The term 'Wafer Chips' accurately describes the product's thinness. The marketing is compliant and not deceptive.
