This snack product is primarily made of dried potato, with rice bran oil and a blend of spices. While it offers a convenient snack option, consumers should be mindful of the added sugar and sodium content, which are common in processed snacks. The presence of flavour enhancers disodium guanylate and disodium inosinate, while permitted, may be a consideration for individuals managing gout due to their purine content. The product is generally suitable for healthy adults in moderation, but those with specific dietary restrictions or sensitivities to purine-rich foods should exercise caution.

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.
Regulatory & scientific authority Source: EFSA; WHO; Arthritis Foundation
Disodium Ribonucleotides: regulation, sources and other products →Decode Label Analysis
Contains Disodium Guanylate (INS 627) and Disodium Inosinate (INS 631), which are purine sources. Individuals managing gout should be aware of their intake.
Combined Effects interactions
The combination of flavour enhancers, sugar, and salt contributes to the highly palatable nature of the snack, which can encourage overconsumption, potentially leading to excessive intake of sodium and sugar.
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 states the fat content as 3.2g per serving, but it does not provide a comparison value or a baseline product to verify the '60% less fat' claim.
This is a marketing slogan that cannot be objectively verified from the provided label information.
The label states 'NOT BAKED. NOT FRIED.', but there is no information on the label to confirm the cooking method used.
This is a descriptive claim about the flavor profile that cannot be objectively verified from the ingredient list or nutrition facts.
The ingredient list does not contain palm oil; it lists rice bran oil as the oil used.
The primary ingredient is dried potato, and the product is described as 'popped chips', which aligns with the 'not baked. not fried.' claim.
The ingredients list spices and condiments, which supports the 'spicy chipotle flavour' claim.

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.
