Big Burger Taste.......
Did you know Every year we process over 4,000 tonnes of Australian grown corn and over 1,500 tonnes of Australian grown rice into Twisties, Cheetos and Burger Rings.
Burger Rings burger flavoured snacks were introduced into the snack food market in 1974. They have a unique flavour that appeals to everyone. Kids and adults love Burger Rings. Burger Rings are the most successful burger flavoured snack in Australia - no other brand matches that great burger taste!
Burger Rings are made from a mix of rice and corn and as a result are part of the "cereal snack" segment of the snack food market. They are known as "Extruded Snacks" which describes the way they are made. The mix is blended with water. This mixture is then fed into the extruders where it is heated under pressure. This mixture is then pushed through a ring in a circular die, creating the ring shape. When it comes in contact with the air, the hot water in the mixture turns to steam forcing the mixture to expand and thus creating a light texture. The Burger Rings are then cut to the right thickness, oven dried and then flavoured via flavour tumblers. They are then packaged immediately to seal in freshness and the unique taste.
