No Plastic in Kurkure Snack
05.27.09 (2:29 am) [edit]Kurkure had launched a new, delicious localized flavor with 'East Parar Tok Jhal’ in Kolkata this April. There is no plastic in Kurkure so it is not harmful to health as it is made from rice, corn and special spices.
Since the snack was launched in Kolkata, I did not have the opportunity to taste. Did any of you taste it then do share your experience on the same? All of you must be thinking how on earth did I know about the flavour that was introduced in Kolkata. I have a very dear friend Nishi Bannerjee residing in the eastern part of the country, came to know about it from her.
She said that the new Kurkure ‘East Parar Tok Jhal’ flavour brings with it a tangy taste of mustard and a mouth watering mix of spices.
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!
How cool is that, so people Kurkure does not contain any plastic nor is it harmful but rather a tasty snack available in mouth-lickering flavours.

Yep, I totally agree Kurkure has no plastic-it is just some kinda lie. Kurkure comes in various flavors and always surprises me with its variety.

I agree. All these Kurkure Plastic rumors are baseless.
Kurkure is made of edible ingredients that we use in our household kitchen. This is just an unnecessary scare about Kurkure containing plastic that is being spread around.

Dear Author,
Firstly, thanks for this blog and the very informative blog posts especially this one. I truly agree that the rumor about Kurkure containing plastic is completely baseless and there is no piece of truth in it.
Kurkure is my favorite evening snack, I love Kurkure Desi Beats in Lime flavor.

I did hear that Kurkure has launched a special flavour in Kolkata. I did not have the opportunity of tasting it as I am in Mumbai but am sure that it must be another mouth-licking flavour for sure. Kurkure always amazes me with their totally distinguishing flavors everytime. People who say don't eat Kurkure becaouse of the Kurkure plastic rumor are real fools to miss out on eating such tasty snack.
