Mishry Rating
SUPERB!
Summary
These tortilla chips have a pronounced crunch and fresh corn flavor. However, the Sweet Thai Chilli chips were slightly more flavorful compared to the Nacho Cheese chips. The ratings are indicative of the same.
Tortilla chips are a hot favorite party snack and taste even better with your favorite cheese dip or a classic tomato salsa. Haldiram’s, a brand known for its range of Desi snacking options now brings tortilla chips.
We tried the Mexilla tortilla chipa in two different flavors – Sweet Thai Chilli and Nacho Cheese. In our Haldiram’s Tortilla Chips review, we analyze and rate them on taste and crunch. Details discussed below.

Our Experience
Fresh, crunchy, and crisp! The texture of these chips deserves a thumbs up. These chips justify the flavor tag aptly, thanks to the well-rounded Thai Sweet Chilli flavor.
We loved how well dusted the masala is. The camaraderie between the sweet and chili flavor is spot on. These are a bag of mildly spiced and well salted tortilla chips.
Would pair well with both- salsa and cheese dip.
- Dusted well with the masala
- Spot on crunch
- Salt levels are balanced
A crunchy snack with a nice medley of sweet and spicy flavors, this one is a suitable pick for folks with low spice tolerance.
2. Nacho Cheese

Main Ingredients
Here are the ingredients used :
Corn (70%), Edible Vegetable Oil (Palmolein, Cotton Seed, Rice Bran), Sugar Powder, Cheese Powder (6.5%), Milk Solids, *Spices and Condiments (Onion Powder, Red Chilli Powder, Black Pepper Powder, Turmeric Powder, Oregano Powder, Parsley Powder, Spice Extract), Edible Starch, lodised Salt, Yeast Extract, Soy Sauce Powder, Acidity Regulator (INS 270), Natural and Nature Identiçal Flavouring Substances.
Our Experience
Texture-wise, these chips are fresh and extremely crunchy. No complaints here! These were slightly low on the cheese flavor. When you eat any cheese flavored nacho, you expect that to be on the front wheel. Although tasty, these could have been cheesier and dusted more liberally. We have tasted better and more cheesier nacho chips available in the market.
- Adequately salted
- Crunchy texture
- The cheesy flavor is not bold enough. The intensity is mild.
- These tortilla chips will pair well with a cheesy dip or salsa or sour cream.
