Methodology v3.1 (updated 8 Oct 2026) — what changed
This snack product is primarily composed of refined flours and oils, with a significant contribution of saturated fat from the Edible Vegetable Oil and Palmolein Oil. While it contains a variety of spices and condiments that offer flavour, the overall nutritional profile is dominated by fat, sodium, and sugar. Individuals monitoring their intake of saturated fat, sodium, and sugar should be mindful of portion sizes. The presence of milk solids also makes it unsuitable for those with dairy allergies or lactose intolerance.

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.

Palm Oil: regulation, sources and other products →Decode Label Analysis
Palmolein oil is high in saturated fat, which is a cardiovascular concern with regular high intake. EFSA's CONTAM opinion (2016) also notes potential refining contaminants like glycidyl esters, though levels depend on processing.
Claim check
Front-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.
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.
Solid Masti appears to be a descriptive or marketing term for the product variant and does not make a verifiable claim about its ingredients, nutritional content, or specific properties.
Twisteez describes the shape or form of the snack, which is visually apparent but not a claim about ingredients or nutrition that can be verified from the provided label data.
The ingredients list various spices and condiments, including onion powder, coriander powder, chilli powder, amchur, star anise powder, anardana powder, turmeric powder, black pepper powder, ginger powder, and large cardamom powder, which are consistent with a masala flavor.
Read straight from the back-of-pack photo — quantities, sections and any disguised terms, so the small print can’t hide behind the marketing.

In label order — normally largest quantity first. Select a row for the full write-up and sources.
A blend of refined vegetable oils, judged as a single concern — a high saturated-fat source — rather than one flag per oil. The individual oils are listed below and in "What the label actually shows".
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.
The label declares each of these as a blend and then lists what is in it. The components appear in the groups above on their own merits, so the blend itself is shown here rather than counted a second time.

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.
