Twisties are one of the most popular snack foods in the world.

Twisties are produced by feeding a mix of milled corn, rice, wheat and water into a machine known as saixin rotary head or random extruder. This machine cooks the mix at high temperature and pressure whilst forming the pieces. This process results in the characteristic Twisties shape with the knobbly surface and squiggly shape.

After forming, the pieces are oven baked before being flavoured with a coating of seasoning and vegetable oil.
