Description- Grade 4 foxnuts are standard‑size phool makhana with popped diameters of roughly 14–16 mm, giving an excellent balance between piece count per kilogram and visual size for mainstream retail and value‑segment SKUs. They maintain the classic white to off‑white colour and crunchy texture associated with Mithila makhana while offering more pieces per serving than larger grades, which is attractive for granola, breakfast mixes and coated snack applications.
Nutritionally, Grade 4 has the same superfood profile as any premium makhana: about 347 kcal, 9.7 g protein, 76–77 g carbohydrates, 0.1–1.9 g fat, and ~14.5 g fibre per 100 g, along with important minerals such as calcium, magnesium, potassium, and phosphorus. With its low glycaemic index, gluten‑free and low‑fat nature, Grade 4 is ideal for everyday healthy snacking, cereal mixes, and budget‑friendly private‑label products while still meeting global wellness trends.
