This cassava-based snack offers a simple ingredient list, primarily featuring cassava root and rice bran oil. While it avoids many common artificial additives, consumers should be mindful of the sodium content from edible common salt, especially those managing blood pressure. The use of rice bran oil is a positive, but the overall saturated fat content should be considered within a balanced diet. The product is generally suitable for most adults in moderation, but individuals with specific dietary restrictions or sensitivities to chili should exercise caution.

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.
