Methodology v3.1 (updated 8 Oct 2026) — what changed

This snack product is primarily potato and refined palmolein, making it an energy-dense, fried food high in saturated fat. While it contains various spices and natural flavourings, the specific 'Acidity Regulator', 'Flavour Enhancers', 'Anticaking Agent', and 'Emulsifying and Stabilizing Agent' are not fully disclosed by their specific chemical names or INS codes, which limits transparency. The presence of 'Flavour Enhancers' may include purine-rich compounds like Disodium Ribonucleotides, which is a consideration for individuals managing gout.

High saturated fat from refined palmolein; undisclosed additives

This snack is high in saturated fat due to the use of refined palmolein, a common concern for cardiovascular health with regular high intake. Several functional additives like acidity regulators, flavour enhancers, anticaking agents, and emulsifying/stabilizing agents are listed without specific chemical names or INS codes, reducing transparency.

Watch out for

High saturated fat content from refined palmolein

Seasoning — citric acid (INS 330), a naturally occurring acid used to adjust pH; recognised as safe.

Ingredient Concerns safety database

Sources cited below may be Indian (FSSAI) or international (EU, US, WHO, IARC) — an international classification or law is evidence, not an Indian regulatory finding.

Palm Oil

Palm oil is very high in saturated fatty acids (~50%), which raise LDL cholesterol and increase cardiovascular risk with regular high consumption. Refined palm oil can also carry processing contaminants (glycidyl esters and 3-MCPD esters), which EFSA assessed in 2016.

Regulatory & scientific authority Source: WHO; Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health; EFSA CONTAM opinion (2016)

Palm Oil: regulation, sources and other products →

Disodium Ribonucleotides (E635)

E635 is a mixture of disodium inosinate (E631) and disodium guanylate (E627). Both are purine nucleotides, which the body breaks down to uric acid. People with gout or hyperuricaemia, or who have been advised to limit purines, may wish to limit foods containing it. The amounts used in foods are small, so the concern applies to people already managing uric acid rather than to the general population.

Regulatory & scientific authority Source: EFSA; WHO; Arthritis Foundation

Disodium Ribonucleotides: regulation, sources and other products →

Wheat Flour

Wheat and wheat-derived ingredients contain gluten, which triggers an autoimmune response in people with celiac disease, causing intestinal damage. People with non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) or wheat allergy must also avoid this ingredient. Labelled as a major allergen by FSSAI.

Regulatory & scientific authority Source: FSSAI Food Labelling Regulations; Celiac Disease Foundation

Decode Label Analysis

Refined Palmolein is high in saturated fat, which is a cardiovascular concern with regular high intake. EFSA's CONTAM opinion (2016) also notes potential contaminants like glycidyl esters from the refining process, though levels vary by processing.

The term 'Flavour Enhancers' without specific chemical names or INS codes reduces transparency. If Disodium Ribonucleotides are present, they are a purine source relevant for people managing gout.

Contains Wheat gluten, which is not suitable for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.

Contains Milk Solids, which is an allergen for individuals with milk allergy.

Contains Soy Sauce Powder, which contains soy, an allergen.

Trace amounts: some named ingredients appear in token quantities or low in the list. At these concentrations a meaningful benefit is unlikely, and their front-of-pack prominence may not reflect their level in the formulation.

Listed twice: an ingredient appears more than once in the same part of the list. This may indicate two separate ingredient blends in the formulation, or a duplication in how the label was recorded.

In label order — normally largest quantity first. Select a row for the full write-up and sources.

These are major food allergens named on the ingredient list. They are a risk only to people allergic to them — not a general-population safety issue — so they do not lower the safety score. Anyone with the allergy should avoid this product, and check the pack’s own allergen statement.

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.
