What to know about Crax Corn Rings Masala Mania Puffs Snacks
Corn puffs with a toy, heavy on salt and fat
Crax Corn Rings Masala Mania is a corn puff snack built on corn grits (64%) and refined palmolein oil, coated in a masala seasoning of sugar, iodised salt, onion powder (0.98%), spices, hydrolysed soy protein and flavour enhancers. It is aimed at children, and a toy in the pack is part of the pitch.
A 20 g serve, with about three in a pack, gives 96.4 kcal, 1.1 g protein and 245 mg sodium. Per 100 g the snack has 482 kcal, 24.3 g fat, 11 g saturated fat and 1,227 mg sodium. Added sugar is low at 2.6 g per 100 g, so salt and fat are the story.
The pack says Trans Fat Free and the listing says not fried. The corn base is real, but the oil is the second ingredient and the panel still shows a small trans fat figure. The toy is a non-edible extra, not suitable for children under 3. CleanPlate scores it EB5.
Why Crax Corn Rings Masala Mania Puffs Snacks scores EB5
Nutrition is an E on 5.4 g protein per 100 g and nothing else to add. Ingredients are a B, held back by flavouring and additives. Risk is a 5 on 1,227 mg sodium and 11 g saturated fat per 100 g.
Very low nutrient density

- 5.4 g
- Fibre
- Not declared
- Vitamins and minerals
- None declared
- Energy
- 482 kcal
01 Nutrition density: why E
Protein is 5.4 g per 100 g, mostly from the corn grits, and the protein is not strong enough to earn credit. No fibre, vitamins or minerals are declared, so nothing lifts the grade.
Energy is 482 kcal per 100 g, about 96 kcal in a 20 g serve, with 24.3 g fat and 60.5 g carbohydrate.
Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.

- Additives

- Flagged
- Palmolein, Maltodextrin
02 Ingredient integrity: why B
Corn grits at 64% lead the list, followed by refined palmolein oil and a seasoning. Only corn grits and onion powder (0.98%) have declared percentages. The list is short and mostly recognisable foods, which keeps this grade up.
Nature-identical flavouring, silicon dioxide (551) as an anticaking agent and the flavour enhancers 627 and 631 each cost ingredient points. Citric acid (330) costs none. No hydrogenated fat is listed, so the declared trans fat is accepted, and no hollow label promise applies.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.
Very high risk
- Added sugar
- 2.6 g
- Sodium
- 1227 mg
- Saturated fat
- 11 g
- Trans fat
- 0.17 g
03 Load risk: why 5
Sodium is the biggest driver at 1,227 mg per 100 g, 245 mg in a 20 g serve. Saturated fat is next at 11 g per 100 g, more than twice the 5 g high line, and about 2.2 g per serve.
Energy adds to it, and trans fat is declared at 0.17 g per 100 g. Added sugar is 2.6 g per 100 g and plays almost no part.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.
Red flags
- −Red flag: High sodium (1227mg per 100g)
- −Red flag: High saturated fat (11g)
- −Red flag: Palm oil listed
- −Red flag: Contains Maltodextrin
Green flags
Nothing stands out in its favour.
