Reviewed 3 times · Methodology v3.1 (updated 8 Oct 2026) — what changed

This snack offers a mix of nuts and spices, providing some beneficial nutrients. However, it is a fried product with a high fat content, primarily from cotton seed oil, contributing to its high calorie density. The presence of added sugar and salt means it should be consumed in moderation, especially for individuals monitoring their intake of these components. The acidity regulator (INS 330) is generally considered safe for consumption.

Fried snack with high fat and calories; contains added sugar and salt.

This fried snack is high in calories and fat due to the cooking oil. It also contains added sugar and salt, which means it should be eaten sparingly as part of a balanced diet. While it includes nuts and spices, these do not offset the overall nutritional profile of a fried product.

Okay for: Healthy adults in moderation

Declared allergens: Tree nuts and Sesame

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.

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.
