In today’s fast-paced world, we all crave something quick, tasty, and healthy. When it comes to side dishes, chutneys are a must-have for Indian meals — especially with dosa, idli, or even chapati. But are the store-bought chutneys you're grabbing off the shelf really as healthy as they seem? Let’s dive deep into a health comparison between instant chutney mixes and regular store-bought chutneys, and why switching to Daily Farmer’s Instant Chutneys can be the best decision for your family.


What Are Instant Chutney Mixes?

Instant chutney mixes are powdered chutneys made from natural ingredients that require minimal preparation. Just mix with water or curd, and your fresh chutney is ready in seconds! No preservatives, no added chemicals — just pure, traditional taste in a modern avatar.Daily Farmer offers a range of nutritious instant chutneys like:

  • Magic Dhal ChutneyReady in just 3 seconds!
  • Beetroot Chutney – a vibrant, earthy option packed with nutrition.
  • Peanut Chutney – the best peanut chutney you can find, full of healthy fats and proteins.

Store-Bought Chutneys: Hidden Ingredients You Should Know

When you pick up packaged chutneys from the supermarket, flip the label and take a look. Most commercial chutneys are loaded with:

  • Preservatives to extend shelf life.
  • Excess Salt & Sugar to enhance flavor artificially.
  • Synthetic Colors and Flavors to make the chutney look fresher than it really is.
  • Oils of low quality that can harm your health over time.

These additives, while improving taste and storage, significantly compromise the nutritional value of chutneys.
