Why are Rooted Delights called “Rooted”?
Because we believe in staying rooted — in health, in culture, and in conscious choices. Our Healthy Indian snacks are inspired by traditional Indian superfoods like Makhana, modernized for today’s lifestyle. Clean, honest, and soulfully grounded.
What’s wrong with most store-bought snacks today?
Many are ultra-processed, full of refined oils, added sugars, MSG, and preservatives. We offer a better way — roasted, not fried, and made with natural ingredients your body actually understands.
What does “clean snacking” mean to you?
To us, it means no shortcuts, no junk, and no compromises. Every batch is free from palm oil, trans fat, and artificial flavours. We believe snacking should nourish — not numb — your body.
How are your snacks made?
In small batches with precision and love. Each makhana puff is handpicked, roasted (never fried), and seasoned using thoughtfully sourced herbs, spices, and oils. We treat food as fuel — and as joy.
Why do you focus on Makhana instead of other snacks?
Because Phool Makhana is a functional super-snack — rich in antioxidants, gluten-free, protein-packed, and deeply rooted in Ayurveda. It’s nature’s answer to junk food — we just made it tastier.
What’s your mission as a brand?
Our mission is simple: make mindful snacking mainstream. We want to replace processed, soulless snacks with options that are rooted in wellness, sustainability, and flavour — without ever compromising on taste.
What makes your flavours different from other brands?
We don’t just chase trends — we craft flavour experiences. From the earthy depth of Double Truffle to the boldness of Screaming Garlic, our profiles are layered, satisfying, and made without chemical flavouring agents.
Are your ingredients sustainably sourced?
Yes. We work with ethical farms and local partners who share our values. From the lotus seed fields to your pouch — we focus on traceability, purity, and positive impact on the supply chain.
Why do you avoid palm oil and preservatives?
Because your body (and the planet) deserves better. Palm oil contributes to deforestation, and preservatives strain your gut health. We skip both — so your snack is kind to you and the Earth.
Who are Rooted Delights made for?
For the health-seeker. The late-night snacker. The thoughtful gift-giver. For anyone who wants flavour without guilt, crunch without compromise, and nourishment that doesn’t taste like cardboard.
