The Humble Poppadom: Crispy, Healthy Delights for Everyone 

Bhavani Foods' popular brand - Uncle Saba's Poppadoms, is a traditional Indian staple turned modern-day treat that can be enjoyed anytime, anywhere 


A staple in Indian cuisine that is now ready to be consumed at any time



Poppadoms, a simple disc-shaped snack made of flour from legumes; cassava or other vegetables, has long been a staple in Indian cuisine. 


Although traditionally served with banana leaf rice, Bhavani Foods (M) Sdn Bhd under their brand – Uncle Saba’s Poppadoms – are manufacturing miniature versions of the snack, ready for consumption anytime and anywhere. 



Healthy and Tasty

Named after the company’s founder, Uncle Saba’s Poppadoms are made from 100% urad dal beans, otherwise known as black lentils or vigna mungo beans. The contemporary twist to the classic dish came about due to Uncle Saba’s vision of sharing the ethic snack globally as a healthy alternative to products that are filled with harmful ingredients.



Uncle Saba’s Poppadoms, made of urad dal, are fried to crispy golden-brown discs of perfection and served ready-to-eat for consumers


These first-of-its-kind poppadom snacks pack a hearty punch of protein and fibre, while containing fewer carbs and saturated fats compared to other types of chips. They are also the healthier choice due to a zero-content of cholesterol, trans-fats and monosodium glutamate (MSG).



Besides the typical potato chip canisters, these lentil variants also come in a bag


Packed for Style, Seasoned to Seduce

Although poppadoms traditionally have to be cooked before being eaten, Uncle Saba’s Poppadams come ready-to-eat in three different, but familiar forms of packaging and come in nine different flavours. Those new to the snack would delight in the introductory flavours of Original, Sweet Chilli, Barbeque, and Tomato; while those with more fiery taste buds could dip into the Hot and Spicy or Korean BBQ variants. Meanwhile, fans of more savoury flavour would love to sample the Sour Cream and Onion, Tomato Ketchup or Cheese alternatives.

A Global Foothold

Uncle Saba’s Poppadoms are manufactured at Bhavani Foods’ factory in the Batu Caves Industrial area in Selangor, Malaysia and then distributed worldwide.

To meet the growing demand for the product, Bhavani Foods also partners with leading or emerging food companies to develop new and healthy variants of the poppadom snack. 

Currently, Bhavani Foods already has overseas distributors and partnerships in New Zealand, Australia, Kuwait, Hong Kong, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Japan and 18 other countries worldwide. 

They fully intend to keep their well-earned position as the number one ready-to-eat lentil chip snack choice of the world.
