Decode Label Safety Score
How we got 1.5 ShowHide
Reviewed 7 times · Methodology v3.1 (updated 8 Oct 2026) — what changed
This instant noodle product contains several additives that warrant caution, most notably Caramel Colour (INS 150d), which is an ammonia-process caramel colour. This type of caramel colour is associated with the formation of 4-methylimidazole (4-MEI), classified by IARC as a Group 2B possible human carcinogen. The product also contains flavour enhancers Disodium Ribonucleotides (INS 627, INS 631), which are purine-rich and may trigger gout in susceptible individuals. While it provides a quick meal, the high sodium content is a significant concern for general health, especially for children and individuals monitoring their sodium intake. The presence of refined wheat flour and gluten makes it unsuitable for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. The product's overall formulation is typical of ultra-processed foods, with multiple additives and flavouring substances.
At a glance
From the declared label — not a lab testFindings to weigh
What’s favorable
- Spices and Condiments (Contains Onion & Garlic (6%))
Contains IARC 2B carcinogen (4-MEI) and high sodium; not suitable for gluten sensitivity
This instant noodle product contains Caramel Colour (INS 150d), which can form 4-MEI, classified by IARC as a possible human carcinogen. It is also very high in sodium, which is a concern for blood pressure and overall health, particularly for children. Individuals with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease should avoid this product due to the presence of wheat flour and wheat gluten. Additionally, flavour enhancers may trigger gout in susceptible individuals.
Consider this product carefully if you are
- Avoiding certain additives or colours — Flavour Enhancers (INS 627, INS 631) and Sequestrant (INS 451(i)) are declared.
Declared allergens: Soy and Gluten
Relevant if you have any of these allergies or intolerances.
Based on the declared ingredient list. This is a risk only to people with the allergy, not a general-population safety issue, so it does not lower the safety score.

Watch out for
Very high sodium content, which is a concern for blood pressure and overall health.
Contains Caramel Colour (INS 150d), an ammonia-process caramel colour associated with 4-MEI, an IARC Group 2B possible human carcinogen.
Flavour enhancers (INS 627, INS 631) may trigger gout in susceptible individuals.
Contains refined wheat flour and wheat gluten, making it unsuitable for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.

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 Inosinate (E631)
Disodium inosinate is a nucleotide flavour enhancer derived from meat or fish. High in purines; individuals with gout or elevated uric acid should avoid products containing this additive.
Regulatory & scientific authority Source: EFSA INS 631
Disodium Inosinate: regulation, sources and other products →Disodium Guanylate (E627)
Disodium guanylate is a nucleotide flavour enhancer high in purines. Often found alongside MSG or E635. Gout sufferers and those with kidney stones should avoid foods containing E627.
Regulatory & scientific authority Source: EFSA INS 627
Disodium Guanylate: regulation, sources and other products →Sodium Triphosphate (E451)
High dietary phosphate intake is linked to impaired kidney function, accelerated cardiovascular disease, and increased all-cause mortality in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Individuals with pre-existing kidney or heart conditions should strictly limit consumption of phosphate-rich processed foods.
Regulatory & scientific authority Source: FSSAI INS 451; EFSA Opinion on Phosphates
Sodium Triphosphate: regulation, sources and other products →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 →Caramel Colour (Class III & IV) (E150c)
Classes III and IV of caramel colour (INS 150c/150d) are made with ammonia, a process that can generate 4-methylimidazole (4-MEI) as a by-product. IARC classifies 4-MEI as Group 2B, possibly carcinogenic to humans, and California lists it under Proposition 65 with a warning threshold — though EFSA's own re-evaluation did not reach the same level of concern as IARC's classification. This label does not state the product's 4-MEI concentration, so exposure from this specific product cannot be determined from the ingredient list alone. It is the colour that makes colas and dark sauces brown. Classes I and II are made without ammonia and do not carry this concern.
Regulatory & scientific authority Source: IARC Monograph Vol. 101 (4-MEI); California Proposition 65; EFSA re-evaluation of caramel colours (2011)
Caramel Colour (Class III & IV): regulation, sources and other products →Potassium Carbonate (E501)
Potassium carbonate adds to dietary potassium load. For patients with chronic kidney disease who cannot efficiently excrete potassium, excess potassium can lead to dangerous hyperkalaemia (elevated blood potassium), which can cause cardiac arrhythmias.
Regulatory & scientific authority Source: FSSAI INS 501; National Kidney Foundation
Potassium Carbonate: regulation, sources and other products →Sodium Carbonate (E500)
Used as a leavening agent and acidity regulator. Contributes to total dietary sodium. Individuals on sodium-restricted diets (hypertension, kidney disease, heart failure) should account for sodium from all food additive sources, not just table salt.
Regulatory & scientific authority Source: FSSAI INS 500
Sodium Carbonate: regulation, sources and other products →Wheat Flour
Wheat and wheat-derived ingredients contain gluten, which triggers an autoimmune response in people with celiac disease, causing intestinal damage. People with non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) or wheat allergy must also avoid this ingredient. Labelled as a major allergen by FSSAI.
Regulatory & scientific authority Source: FSSAI Food Labelling Regulations; Celiac Disease Foundation
Wheat Flour: regulation, sources and other products →Decode Label Analysis
Caramel Colour (INS 150d) is an ammonia-process caramel colour that carries 4-MEI, an IARC Group 2B carcinogen.
Flavour enhancers Disodium Ribonucleotides (INS 627, INS 631) are purine-rich and may trigger gout in susceptible individuals.
Contains wheat gluten, which is a declarable allergen and not suitable for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
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 declares Edible Vegetable Oil (Rice Bran Oil) and Edible Vegetable Oil (Refined Sunflower Oil) without naming what it is, so the list cannot establish whether this product contains palm oil.
The ingredient list does not contain any ingredients that are commonly identified as preservatives.
Read straight from the back-of-pack photo — quantities, sections and any disguised terms, so the small print can’t hide behind the marketing.

Natural & Nature Identical Flavouring Substances
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.
Listed twice: an ingredient appears more than once in the same part of the list. This may indicate two separate ingredient blends in the formulation, or a duplication in how the label was recorded.
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.
