Decode Label Safety Score
How we got 5.5 ShowHide
Reviewed 3 times · Methodology v3.1 (updated 8 Oct 2026) — what changed
This snack offers a base of nutritious whole grains and seeds, which is a positive. However, the seasoning mix contains several additives, including Disodium 5'-ribonucleotide, a flavor enhancer that is a purine source and should be noted by individuals managing gout. The label also lists an 'Acidity Regulator' without specific identification, which reduces transparency. While the product contains beneficial ingredients, the presence of multiple additives and the lack of full disclosure for one additive are the primary factors limiting its overall score.

Nutrient-rich grains and seeds with flavor enhancers and undisclosed acidity regulator
This snack is built on a base of quinoa, pearl millet, pumpkin seeds, and melon seeds, offering good nutritional value. However, it includes Disodium 5'-ribonucleotide, a flavor enhancer that is a purine source, which is relevant for people managing gout.

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.

Disodium Ribonucleotides: regulation, sources and other products →Decode Label Analysis
Disodium 5'-ribonucleotide is a flavor enhancer and a purine source, which is relevant for people managing gout.
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.
The label states '100% ROASTED', but there is no information on the label to verify that all ingredients or the entire product is roasted.
This is a general slogan or statement of principle and cannot be verified from the product label.
Quinoa (30%), Pumpkin Seeds (14%), and Melon Seeds (14%) are listed in the ingredients.
Quinoa (30%), Pearl Millet (Bajra) (32%), Pumpkin Seeds (14%), and Melon Seeds (14%) are listed in the ingredients, confirming the presence of quinoa, seeds, and pearl millets.
Spices and Condiments (Chilli (1.3%)) are listed in the ingredients, which is consistent with a Peri Peri flavor.
The nutrition information states 0 mg of Cholesterol per serving.
Read straight from the back-of-pack photo — quantities, sections and any disguised terms, so the small print can’t hide behind the marketing.

Oil
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.
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.
