Kurkure Healthy Snack

I shall provide you with more information about the new Kurkure variant here that has been launched in South India.

Kurkure, one of India’s most loved snack food brands has brought a new, regional flavour to the South market and offers another reason for consumers to snack smart while retaining the delightful taste of authentic South Indian spices!

Called ‘South Special’, this new flavour has been created, using special spices with a dash of curry leaves designed to tingle the taste buds of consumers in South India.

Made using rice, corn and gram blended with a variety of flavors, consumers can now SnackSmart™ and enjoy the great taste of Kurkure products, cooked in healthier rice bran oil with 40% less saturated fats, zero trans fats and no added msg. All these value additions increase the ratio of the good fats and reduce the saturated fat by 40%.

The new flavour derives itself from spices that put Indian food on a pedestal and as the name suggests, it celebrates the local cuisine & taste of the region! For Kurkure lovers, their very own tedha shaped snack will offer them a wider variety to choose from!

So people, do not say no to Kurkure but rather eat Kurkure, the tasty Indian namkeen snack.

Are you a Kurkure lover? Do you enjoy munching Kurkure at the comfort of the sofa at your home? Does it tempt you to buy a packet of Kurkure, when you are in a grocery store? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you should take the quiz here. If you have read my previous posts then it would be a slice of cake to answer the questions here.

The main aim of this quiz is to know how much do we actually know of the product that we consume almost on a regular basis. The inspiration of this quiz comes from the recent rumor claiming that Kurkure contains plastic. It is a different thing that the rumor contending that Kurkure contains plastic is totally baseless. But since we did not know much about the product, most of us believed in the rumor so much so that people actually bought Kurkure to burn Kurkure to see plastic melting.
