If you have been reaching for a packet of crisps out of habit, only to feel vaguely guilty about it five minutes later, you are not alone. Most of the UK's most popular snacks are low in fibre, high in refined starches, and do very little for your digestive health. The good news? There is a whole world of fibre-rich snacks that are genuinely satisfying - and Chandra Foods has been making them in the UK since 1985.
Our high fibre snacks are rooted in traditional Indian recipes, crafted with gram flour (chickpea flour), fenugreek, sesame, carom seeds and other naturally fibre-rich ingredients. Every snack in this range is 100% vegetarian, Vegetarian Society and Vegan Society approved, manufactured right here in the UK, and free from the artificial additives that bloat ingredient lists on most supermarket shelves. These are real snacks, made properly, the way they have always been made.
Adults in the UK are advised to consume 30g of dietary fibre per day. Most of us fall well short of that target. The problem is not willpower - it is opportunity. Ultra-processed snacks dominate the market, and most of them strip out the fibre that naturally occurs in grains and legumes during manufacturing. What you are left with is something light, crunchy and quickly eaten, but nutritionally hollow.
Gram flour - the base ingredient in many of our snacks - is naturally higher in fibre than refined wheat flour. Fenugreek (methi), used in our Methi Chakri, is well regarded for its fibre content and has been a staple of Indian cooking for centuries for good reason. When you snack on food made with whole, minimally processed ingredients, you are quietly doing something genuinely useful for your gut.
If supporting your digestive health is a priority, you may also want to explore our dedicated gut health snacks UK range, which sits alongside this collection and shares many of the same ingredients and values.
Every product in this range has been selected because it is made with fibre-contributing ingredients and nothing unnecessary. Here is what you will find:
Our Gathiya range includes two firm favourites - Bhavnagari Gathiya and Fully Gathiya. Both are made primarily from gram flour (besan), which provides a good natural source of plant-based fibre. Bhavnagari Gathiya has soft, thick strands and a mild seasoning of carom seeds. Fully Gathiya is crispier, with a light bite and a subtle warmth from black pepper and carom. Both are rated 4.73 out of 5 by our customers, and at £3.99 each, they are a genuinely affordable everyday snack.
Pair either with a cup of chai and you have the classic Gujarati teatime sorted. If you want to explore the full range, browse all Gathiya snacks on our site.
Do not be fooled by their size. Our Boondi snacks - crispy little gram flour pearls - are as versatile as they are tasty. Plain Boondi works beautifully stirred into raita, scattered over chaat, or eaten straight from the bag with a cup of tea. Masala Boondi steps it up with spice - a tangy black salt finish and a proper kick that makes it genuinely hard to stop at one handful. Both are rated 4.73 out of 5 and priced at £3.99.
Because they are made from gram flour with no refined wheat, both Boondi varieties are also a smart choice for those looking for plant-based fibre snacks that actually taste of something.
If there is one snack in this collection that earns its place on a fibre-conscious snack shelf, it is our Methi Chakri 250g. Rated 4.83 out of 5 - the highest in this range - and priced at £3.99, it combines the natural fibre content of gram flour with the added benefit of methi (fenugreek). The result is a golden, aromatic spiral with a crunchy bite and a genuinely distinctive flavour. It feels like a special-occasion snack, but it is easy enough to enjoy any afternoon.
Methi has been used in South Asian cooking for centuries precisely because it works - as a digestive aid, as a flavouring, and as a source of soluble fibre. Our Methi Chakri brings all of that into a snack that tastes nothing like medicine and everything like a proper teatime treat. Browse the full Chakri range for more.
Fulwadi is one of those snacks that surprises people. Made with gram flour and flavoured with fennel and sesame seeds, it has a gentle sweetness alongside its spice - a combination that makes it feel a little more indulgent than it actually is. At 4.64 out of 5 and £3.99, it is a consistent favourite with customers who want something different from the usual savoury-only snack shelf.
Our Farali Chevda 200g, rated 4.71 out of 5 at £3.99, is traditionally made for fasting days - it contains no onion, no garlic, and no regular grains. Made with thin potato flakes, nuts and mild spices, it is light, flavourful and suitable for those who want a snack without the ingredient baggage. It is popular with UK Asian families during religious festivals, but honestly, it is good enough to eat any time.
There are plenty of Indian snacks available across the UK. What sets Chandra Foods apart is straightforward: we have been making these snacks in London since 1985, using family recipes and real ingredients. We do not cut corners on what goes in, and we do not load our snacks with artificial flavourings, colours or preservatives.
These are snacks that belong in the non-UPF snacks UK conversation - made with recognisable ingredients, without the ultra-processing that strips nutritional value away. If you are moving away from heavily processed foods and looking for snacks that feel honest, this range is a very good starting point.
One of the things we hear most from customers is that they were not expecting snacks this good to also be this wholesome. Our high fibre savoury snacks work across a wide range of occasions:
Gram flour-based snacks like Gathiya and Boondi are genuinely good for the office snack drawer. They are not overpoweringly messy, they travel well in a bag, and they do not leave you reaching for something else twenty minutes later. Light, satisfying, and a great deal more interesting than a plain rice cake. For more options along these lines, see our healthy savoury snacks UK range.
This is how these snacks have been eaten for generations. A cup of strong, milky chai and a small bowl of Gathiya or Chakri. It is one of life's straightforward pleasures, and we have never felt the need to improve on it.
Boondi in raita. Chakri alongside chutneys. Fulwadi on a sharing platter at Diwali or a family gathering. Our snacks are made to go alongside other food, not just to be eaten in isolation. Browse the wider Gujarati Snacks range to build out your snack collection, or explore our traditional Indian snacks UK landing page for even more options rooted in heritage and flavour.

They are healthy snacks in the truest sense: made thoughtfully, from good ingredients, without unnecessary processing.
If you are actively managing your fibre intake, these snacks are a genuinely useful addition to your diet - not a compromise, not a sacrifice, and certainly not boring.

A snack is generally considered high in fibre if it contains 6g or more of fibre per 100g, or a good source if it has 3g or more per 100g. Snacks made from gram flour (chickpea flour), legumes, seeds, or whole grains tend to be naturally higher in fibre than those made with refined wheat or potato starch. Our snacks use gram flour as a primary ingredient, which is naturally higher in fibre than white flour.
Yes. Our gram flour-based snacks – including Gathiya, Boondi, Chakri and Fulwadi – contain naturally occurring dietary fibre from chickpea-based ingredients. They are a more fibre-conscious choice than most mass-market crisps and savoury snacks, which are typically made from refined starches with little nutritional value.
Gram flour, also known as besan or chickpea flour, is made from ground chickpeas. Chickpeas are a good source of both soluble and insoluble dietary fibre. When snacks are made with gram flour as a primary ingredient – as ours are – they retain this natural fibre content in a way that refined flour-based snacks simply do not.
Methi Chakri is a traditional Gujarati spiral-shaped snack made with gram flour and fenugreek (methi). Fenugreek seeds and leaves are a recognised source of soluble fibre and have been used in South Asian cooking for centuries for both their flavour and their digestive properties. Our Methi Chakri is rated 4.83 out of 5 by customers and is one of the most popular products in our high fibre snacks range.
Yes. Every snack in our high fibre range is 100% plant-based and approved by the Vegan Society. If you are looking specifically for plant-based snacking options, our plant based snacks UK range covers this in full.
Our snacks are made with simple, recognisable ingredients – gram flour, spices, seeds and traditional seasonings – with no artificial colours, artificial flavourings or preservatives. They are not ultra-processed in the way that most supermarket snack foods are. For a full overview of our approach to clean-label snacking, visit our non UPF snacks UK page.
All our snacks are manufactured in the UK at our facility in Park Royal, London. We have been producing authentic Indian snacks here since 1985. Buying from us means supporting a British family business with over 40 years of heritage.
Dietary fibre feeds the beneficial bacteria in your gut, supports regular digestion, and helps you feel fuller for longer after eating. Soluble fibre – found in gram flour and fenugreek – dissolves in water and forms a gel-like substance in the gut, which slows digestion and supports a stable blood sugar response. For more on snacks with gut health in mind, explore our gut health snacks UK range.
Both. Boondi and Masala Boondi are particularly versatile – they are a traditional addition to raita and chaat dishes across India. Gathiya pairs brilliantly with fried chillies and chutneys. Chakri and Fulwadi work well on sharing platters. These snacks have been used in Indian cooking and entertaining for generations; eating them straight from the bag is just the most convenient option.
Yes. We deliver to all UK mainland addresses. Orders over £40 qualify for free express shipping. Orders under that threshold ship for a flat £4.99. We are based in London and dispatch regularly, so your snacks arrive in good time and in good condition.
Absolutely. Gathiya, Boondi and Chakri are all well-suited to office snacking – they are not excessively oily, they are easy to portion, and they travel well in a bag or desk drawer without crumbling. For a wider selection of snacks suited to the workplace, see our healthy snacks UK range.
Both are made from small, crispy gram flour pearls. Plain Boondi has a mild, neutral flavour that makes it ideal for adding to raita or using in cooking. Masala Boondi is seasoned with spices and finished with tangy black salt, giving it a bolder, spicier flavour that works well as a standalone snack. Both are rated 4.73 out of 5 and priced at £3.99.
