Review Experience
Appearance
These are small-round shaped balls. They have an orange-red color coating of the masala. The best part is that the masala coats all the balls evenly.
Texture + Taste
These masala balls are incredibly light and airy, with a satisfying crunch that makes them enjoyable to eat. The texture is right, not too dense or heavy on the palette.
The masala is tasty but not impactful. Ideally, you will have to eat more of these balls to enjoy the flavor of the masala.
While the flavor is not exceptional or wow-worthy, it still makes up for a decent, enjoyable snack that can be consumed while watching a movie or TV show.
Although they didn’t quite compare to the Cheetos we enjoyed in the 90s, they were still a munchable snack.
- Well-coated puffs
- Tasty masala
- Light and airy
- The masala intensity could have been better.
This is the perfect snack to munch on while chilling and watching your favorite shows.
