Mother's Recipe Mixed Pickle — TREAT

Munch or Dump rates Mother's Recipe Mixed Pickle by Mother's Recipe TREAT — score 45/90.

A traditional Indian oil-and-salt pickle: real vegetables, but eaten in tiny amounts because it's loaded with salt and refined oil.

Why this verdict

• Real vegetables (mango, carrot, lime, chilli) as the base
• Very high salt typical of Indian pickles
• Refined cottonseed oil plus mustard oil
• Short, recognizable list with no artificial colors or flavor stacks

Ingredients (10)

• mango (safe) — Real fruit, the main vegetable piece in the pickle.
• carrot (safe) — Whole vegetable, source of beta-carotene.
• Lime (safe) — Real citrus, natural acidity and vitamin C.
• Green chilli (safe) — Whole chilli, adds heat with no downside in this amount.
• Spices & Condiments (safe) — Chilli, onion, garlic and other spices — the one genuinely real, flavorful part.
• Salt (implied/very high) (concerning) — Pickles are extremely high in sodium, which drives blood pressure if you eat more than a spoonful.
• Cottonseed oil (moderate) — Refined seed oil, high in omega-6; fine in small condiment amounts but not a health fat.
• Mustard Oil (safe) — Flavoring oil, minor quantity.
• Acidity Regulator (INS 260 / acetic acid) (safe) — Plain acetic acid (vinegar acid) for tartness and shelf life; harmless.
• Asafoetida (safe) — Traditional spice resin for aroma and digestion; benign.
