About Puffed snacks

Puffed snacks are airy, lightweight treats crafted from ingredients like rice, corn, lentils, or potato starch that are puffed through high-temperature cooking or extrusion. Originating from various cuisines, such as American snack culture or Asian-inspired rice puffs, they provide a convenient and satisfying crunch. Typically seasoned with spices, cheese, or other flavors, puffed snacks come in savory or sweet varieties. While some options are low in calories and contain essential nutrients from plant-based sources, others may have high sodium levels, artificial additives, or unhealthy fats depending on preparation methods. Whole-grain variants or those fortified with proteins can offer greater nutritional value. Perfect for on-the-go snacking, puffed snacks can be part of a balanced diet when consumed in moderation, prioritizing options with natural ingredients and minimal processing to maximize health benefits.
