MTR Puliogare Powder is a convenience spice blend bought primarily by South Indian home cooks or those seeking an authentic shortcut to a classic tamarind rice. While it leans heavily on real whole-spice and nut ingredients — coriander, cumin, fenugreek, groundnuts, coconut, sesame — the inclusion of maltodextrin (a high-GI starch derivative) and the synthetic anti-caking agent INS 551 push it firmly into NOVA Group 4 ultra-processed territory; the 12% declared salt content is the single most actionable concern for the majority of adult consumers, as a full-pack serving could deliver a very substantial fraction of the WHO daily sodium limit even before accounting for any salt in the rice or accompaniments.
