This green chilli pickle offers a vibrant flavor profile with a transparent ingredient list. While it is a good source of beneficial spices like turmeric and fenugreek, its sodium content, typical for pickles, means it should be consumed in moderation, especially by individuals monitoring their sodium intake. The use of extra virgin olive oil is a positive, contributing healthy fats.

Colour shows the per-100g level (green = low, amber = moderate, red = high), from the product's label. This is a condiment — used by the pinch or the spoonful, not eaten by the plate — so a red row here means the product is dense in that nutrient, not that a serving of it is. The score judges its nutrition on what a 15 g serving actually delivers.

About this analysis: Based on declared label information and available evidence. Decode Label does not independently laboratory-test products, and a score is not a regulatory determination or medical advice.

Disclaimer: Safety scores are Decode Label-generated assessments based on publicly available regulatory data (FSSAI, WHO, EFSA, IARC) and peer-reviewed research. They are not a substitute for professional medical advice, and they are not a regulatory determination, a laboratory safety certification or a medical diagnosis. Ingredient safety can vary by individual health conditions, concentration, and usage context. Decode Label is an independent information service and scores every brand by the same rules. No brand pays for or influences its score. Our founder also founded the personal-care brand Botani Bestie (see our story); its products are scored exactly like everyone else's. Data limitations: This assessment is based on the information declared on the product label and the evidence sources above — Decode Label does not independently laboratory-test this product. Ingredient concentrations, sourcing and manufacturing can vary between batches and are not always disclosed. A finding that is not shown here means it was not identified from the available label information, not that it has been ruled out.
