Nutritional Summary
The product scores 'POOR' primarily due to its extremely high sodium content of 370mg per 30g serving, accounting for over 18% of the FSSAI's recommended daily intake. The presence of multiple flavour enhancers (MSG) and an artificial sweetener (Aspartame) also negatively impacts the score. Positives like being baked and having no palm oil are overshadowed by these significant drawbacks.

Healthy Recipe Ideas
Cheesy Salad Crunch Topper
1. Prepare a fresh salad with chopped cucumber, tomatoes, and onions. 2. Create a simple dressing with lemon juice and black pepper. 3. Crush a small handful of cheese balls and sprinkle over the salad as a crunchy topping instead of fried croutons. 4. Toss and serve immediately.
Health Benefits
Adds a satisfying crunch and cheesy flavour to a nutrient-rich salad while controlling portion size.
Tomato Soup with Cheese Ball Garnish
1. Prepare a simple homemade tomato or mixed vegetable soup. 2. Pour the hot soup into a serving bowl. 3. Garnish with 5-6 whole cheese balls and a sprinkle of fresh coriander. 4. Serve immediately to enjoy the texture contrast.
Health Benefits
Enhances a simple, vitamin-rich soup with texture and flavour, making it more engaging without overconsumption.
Additive Analysis
The product contains FSSAI-approved flavour enhancers (Monosodium Glutamate, Disodium Guanylate, Disodium Inosinate) and an artificial sweetener (Aspartame E951). While approved, these additives can be a concern for sensitive individuals and contribute to the product's highly processed nature. The primary health risk stems from the very high sodium content rather than the additives themselves.

Marketing Claims
The claims 'No Palm Oil', '100% Baked', and 'No Trans Fat' are factually supported by the ingredient and nutrition list. However, the claims 'High Fibre' and 'Protein Rich' are questionable. A 30g serving contains only 1g of fiber and 3g of protein, which are not substantial amounts to warrant such strong claims. This could mislead consumers into believing the product is healthier than its overall nutritional profile, particularly its high sodium content, suggests.
