Extruded snack foods are a popular category of snack products that are manufactured using a process called extrusion. This process involves the mixing of raw materials such as grains, flours, and starches, which are then subjected to high temperatures and pressure to create a dough-like mixture. The dough is then passed through an extruder machine to create a wide range of shapes and sizes, including twists, sticks, and puffs. Extruded snack foods are popular because of their convenient and portable nature, long shelf life, and wide range of flavors and textures. They are a staple in the snack industry and are enjoyed by consumers of all ages. The global extruded snack food market is expected to continue to grow in the coming years due to factors such as increasing urbanization, rising disposable incomes, and a growing preference for convenient and healthy snack options.
