MDH Chunky Chat Masala — OKAY

Munch or Dump rates MDH Chunky Chat Masala by MDH OKAY — score 60/90.

A clean blend of whole spices and dried fruit powders with zero artificial additives, but salt is the #1 ingredient, so it's sodium-heavy.

Why this verdict

• All ingredients are whole spices and dried fruit/herb powders, nothing synthetic
• No artificial colors, flavors, emulsifiers, or modified starches
• Salt is the #1 ingredient, plus black salt, so it's very high in sodium
• Used in tiny pinches, so real-world sodium per serving stays low
