Khetika's Abu Fennel Whole is bought by home cooks and health-conscious consumers looking for a clean, traceable spice from a named growing region. The product's single-ingredient formulation, QR-code traceability, and SUPERGRT quality-testing are genuine strengths. However, the complete absence of a nutrition panel means calories, fiber, and sodium remain unknown — which is the primary reason it cannot clear the SafeShelf bar. Most critically, while fennel seeds are culinary staples, they naturally contain estragole, classified by EFSA (2025 draft) as genotoxic and carcinogenic at concentrated exposures; pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, infants, and young children should avoid fennel preparations beyond incidental cooking use.
