Nutritional Summary
The product scores points for its simple ingredient list, zero added sugar, and negligible fat content. However, it receives a significant penalty for its extremely high sodium content, with a single 15g serving providing 710mg (36% of the daily recommended intake). The presence of a Class-II preservative is also a minor negative factor, leading to an 'AVERAGE' rating.

Additive Analysis
The product contains a Class-II preservative (likely sulphites), which is permitted under FSSAI regulations but can be an allergen for sensitive individuals. The primary health risk is the extremely high sodium content, not the preservative itself.

Marketing Claims
The marketing is questionable due to a direct contradiction. A promotional graphic claims 'No Added Preservatives', while the physical product label clearly states 'Class-II Preservative' and lists 'Sulphite' as a potential allergen. This is misleading to the consumer. Other claims like 'Saves Time' and 'Thick Consistency' are accurate.
