Nutritional Summary

The product scores as 'AVERAGE'. It is fortified with iron and B-vitamins, which is a positive. However, its primary ingredient is refined wheat flour (maida), and it has a high content of added sugar per serving. The use of palm oil contributes to the saturated fat content. It is a highly processed snack that should be consumed in moderation.

Additive Analysis

The additives used, including raising agents (INS 503(ii), INS 500(ii), INS 450(i)), emulsifiers (Lecithin, INS 471, INS 472e), and preservative (INS 223), are permitted under FSSAI regulations. However, INS 223 (Sulphite) can be an allergen for sensitive individuals. The overall additive load is moderate for a processed food product.

Marketing Claims

The claims 'Iron & 6 Vitamins' and 'Zero Trans-Fat' are factually supported by the nutritional information. However, claims like 'Goodness of Wheat' and 'Light' are questionable. The product is made from refined wheat flour (maida), not whole wheat, which is misleading. 'Light' may refer to texture but could be misinterpreted as low-calorie, which it is not. The term 'Wholesome' is an exaggeration for a product high in refined flour and sugar.
