Rajam Badam Drink Mix — BULLSHIT

Munch or Dump rates Rajam Badam Drink Mix by Rajam Badam BULLSHIT — score 0/90.

Sold as 'wholesome, natural, no artificial flavours' — but it's mostly sugar and starch with only 6% almond, dyed with synthetic colour INS 102 and propped up by artificial almond flavour.

Why this verdict

• 'No artificial flavours' on pack, but label lists added almond flavouring substances
• Marketed 'natural', yet coloured with synthetic dye INS 102 (tartrazine)
• Almond is only 6% — sugar and starch are the real bulk
• 'Boosts immunity/energy' is a sugar high, not nutrition

Ingredients (7)

• Sugar (concerning) — Added refined sugar, listed high - spikes blood sugar with no nutrition.
• Edible starch (moderate) — More refined starch with no nutritional upside.
• Badam (almond, 6%) (safe) — The 'hero' ingredient but only 6% — real almonds give protein and healthy fats, just not much here.
• Cashew (2%) (safe) — Tiny amount of nut for flavour; harmless but negligible nutritionally.
• Cardamom (safe) — A natural spice for flavor and aroma, no concerns.
• Synthetic food colour INS 102 (Tartrazine) (concerning) — Artificial yellow dye linked to hyperactivity in sensitive children; here purely to fake an almond-milk colour.
• Nature-identical almond flavouring (moderate) — Lab-made flavour standing in for the almonds the recipe is short on; directly contradicts 'no artificial flavours' marketing.
