This snack product is primarily potato-based, with rice bran oil and a blend of spices. While it contains flavour enhancers disodium guanylate and disodium inosinate, which are purine sources relevant for individuals managing gout, these are present in typical snack food quantities. The product is generally suitable for most adults in moderation, but those with specific dietary restrictions related to purine intake should be aware of the flavour enhancers.

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.
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.

Claim check
1 claim not supported by label dataFront-of-pack marketing claims checked against this product's actual ingredients and nutrition. "Can't verify" means the label does not provide enough information to check the claim — it is not the same as the claim being false.
The label does not provide a comparison product or a baseline fat content to verify the '60% less fat' claim.
This describes the product’s packaging or its category, not a testable attribute of the food itself — so it’s classified separately rather than flagged as a doubtful claim.
The label states the product is 'not baked' and 'not fried', but does not specify the cooking method used, so this claim cannot be verified from the provided information.
The ingredient list does not include palm oil; it lists rice bran oil as the oil used.
The primary ingredient is dried potato, supporting the 'Potato' claim, and the product is described as 'Popped Chips'.
The ingredient list includes 'SPICES AND CONDIMENTS' and 'PEPPER & SPICE EXTRACTS', which are consistent with a Bhel flavor.
The ingredient list includes Acidity Regulator (330), which is citric acid, contributing to a zingy and tangy taste.
The nutrition information states 0 mg of Cholesterol per serving.
The nutrition information states 0 g of Trans Fat per serving.
The label declares 0 g added sugar; the 0.4 g of sugar shown is naturally occurring from grains. The "no added sugar" claim is supported by the label.
Read straight from the back-of-pack photo — quantities, sections and any disguised terms, so the small print can’t hide behind the marketing.

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.
