Nutrition

Is makhana actually high in protein?

Fibre is the stronger number: 11.2 g per 100 g. It fills you up by volume, not by protein - and if protein is the point, the edamame is the jar.

Who Vedic Crunch is

Vedic Crunch is an Indian snack brand built on one rule: the site has to say exactly what the pack says. We make roasted makhana, baked jowar puffs, roasted edamame and date bites: ten products in total, made in four FSSAI-licensed plants that we name on every batch. The company behind the brand is Aarogyumm Nutri LLP, Pune.

What makhana is

Makhana is the seed of the prickly water lily, grown in ponds and harvested by hand, then popped with heat until it opens. It is also called phool makhana, fox nut or lotus seed. It is naturally low in fat and high in fibre, 11.2 g per 100 g on our panel, and we buy only 6 suta, the large grade, which pops thinner and snaps cleaner.

Why the edamame matters

The back panel of Desi Masala Edamame reads 42.1 g of protein per 100 g. That is higher than paneer and higher than most protein bars, and it is a whole bean rather than a formulation. Nothing has been added to raise the number. It comes in three flavours: Desi Masala, Achaari Twist and Salt & Pepper. The front of all three jars carries a 40.5 g roundel; the panel is the figure we publish, and the nutrition page shows the working.

How we cook

Nothing in the range is deep fried. The jowar puffs are baked; the makhana and the edamame are roasted in olive oil or a rice bran and olive oil blend. Every product we make declares 0 g of trans fat on its nutrition panel. Date Bites is four ingredients with no binder and no syrup, and the 23.1 g of sugar on its panel is the dates themselves.

What we publish

Every product page carries the full nutrition panel as it is printed, the complete ingredient list in order, the net weight, the barcode and the FSSAI licence number of the plant that made it. Where a panel has not yet been transcribed, we say so rather than filling the gap with a claim.
