Nutritional Summary

The product scores poorly due to its high content of fat, saturated fat, and sodium per serving. A single 20g serving contains 6.4g of fat and 2.86g of saturated fat, which is significant for a small snack. It is an energy-dense food with minimal nutritional benefits like fiber, vitamins, or minerals. The use of multiple flavour enhancers and processed ingredients further reduces its health score, making it unsuitable for regular consumption.

Additive Analysis

The additives used, including Flavour Enhancers (INS 627, INS 631) and Anticaking Agent (INS 551), are approved by FSSAI for use within specified limits. However, the presence of multiple flavour enhancers and nature-identical flavours indicates a highly processed product. Individuals sensitive to MSG or related compounds might experience adverse reactions. Overall, the additives are legally permissible but contribute to the product's low nutritional quality.

Marketing Claims

The marketing claims are primarily subjective puffery focused on taste and flavour, which accurately reflects the nature of an indulgent snack. The claims do not make any misleading health or nutritional assertions. The claim of using 'top quality potatoes' is a standard marketing statement and not verifiable, but it does not violate ethical guidelines as it doesn't deceive the consumer about the product's health impact.
