Budhani Bros Potato Wafers — TREAT
Munch or Dump rates Budhani Bros Potato Wafers by Budhani Bros TREAT — score 45/90.
Just potatoes fried in oil and salted — a genuinely clean 4-ingredient list, but it's still deep-fried and fat-heavy, so it's an indulgence, not health food.
Why this verdict
- Deep-fried — ~34g fat per 100g, over half the calories from oil
- Refined palmolein oil pushes saturated fat up (~11g/100g)
- Salted for craveability; easy to overeat in one sitting
- Ingredients are clean, but it's still fried starch — an indulgence
Ingredients (4)
- potatoes (safe) — Whole potato base - a real food.
- Refined Palmolein Oil (moderate) — Refined palm-fraction frying oil, high in saturated fat. Fine in small amounts but this is a deep-fried product, so you get a lot of it.
- Edible Peanut Oil (moderate) — A better frying oil than palmolein, but still adds substantial fat and calories to an already oil-soaked snack. Peanut allergen.
- Iodized Salt (safe) — Common salt; iodine is a plus in small amounts.
