Haldiram's Samosa is a popular grab-and-go fried snack bought for its familiar South Asian flavour and convenience. The product carries several red flags: it contains hydrogenated vegetable oil (palm and sesame), which makes it ultra-processed (NOVA 4) and introduces saturated and potentially trans-fat concerns; the real-world per-100 g nutrition figures from the label (570 kcal, 40 g total fat, 20 g saturated fat, 1000 mg sodium) are dramatically higher than the per-serving figures entered in the primary nutrition panel—consumers checking only the front of pack at 15 g servings will substantially underestimate actual intake. The most useful single fact: eating just 50 g (about 3 samosas) delivers roughly 285 kcal, 10 g saturated fat, and 500 mg sodium—already a quarter of an adult's daily sodium limit in a small handful of snack.
