is khakra healthy - #23483

Aria

I am really curious about khakra and whether it's healthy or not. I've been hearing so much about it lately! So, I recently tried some khakra from this local store, and I couldn't resist; I ended up eating half the pack in one sitting! 😅 But now I'm wondering if all that snacking was a mistake. I mean, I know it's made from whole wheat, but I also worry about the oil and salt they use. I've been trying to watch my diet because I've been feeling kind of sluggish and, well, a bit bloated after munching on so much khakra. I love the crunch and how it makes it easy to snack, but is khakra healthy with all the spices and oil they add? Some places say it’s a healthier alternative to chips, but then I read others saying it could lead to weight gain if eaten a lot. What do you guys think? Can khakra fit into a balanced diet or is it better to limit it? Just trying to figure out if I should keep these in my pantry or not!
