Spice Nut is a savory nuts and seeds mixture made primarily from groundnuts (48.6%), almonds, cashews, pumpkin seeds, and makhana, slow-roasted in pure ghee and seasoned with salt, chili, and spices. Unlike ultra-processed packaged snacks, this product is prepared without preservatives or artificial flavors.
From a nutritional standpoint, it is high in protein (21.73 g per 100 g) and provides fiber and minerals from nuts and seeds. However, it is also very calorie-dense (512.8 kcal per 100 g) and contains significant fat due to nuts and ghee. This makes it suitable as an energy snack rather than a light or low-calorie food.
The use of ghee and traditional roasting methods aligns with Indian snacking practices, but portion control remains important. While it offers better ingredient transparency than fried namkeens or flavored chips, it should not be consumed mindlessly or in large quantities.
Overall, Spice Nut is best viewed as a clean-ingredient alternative to processed salty snacks, intended for occasional or measured consumption.
