Kurkure is not harmful to health. Kurkure is a healthy snack manufactured by the FritoLay Division of Pepsi India Co.
Kurkure is available in many flavors in the Indian market. They are Masala Munch (orange pack), Green Chutney Rajasthani Style (light green pack), Red Chilli Chatka (dark green pack) and Tamatar Hydrabadi Style (brown pack). There are two new flavours too. One is the Kurkure Xtreme Electric Nimbu and the other is Kurkure Xtreme Risky Chilli.
The recent addition to this long list is the Kurkure Desi Beats available in Dildaar Masala and Deewana Tamatar flavors.
I personally prefer the Green Chutney Rajasthani Style which comes in a light green pack. The taste of this flavor is just yummy and mouth-watering. Everytime, I visit that grocery shop and see this packet at the counter. Believe me, it is hard to resist. Once, you feel the taste of this snack in your mouth. You’ll go ga-ga over it.

Most of us used to like Kurkure but after the rumor that spread about Kurkure that there is plastic in Kurkure. Things have changed, people actually think that there is plastic in Kurkure. But this is not true. Kurkure does not contain any plastics nor is it made of any kind of plastic.kurkure is made of edible ingredients including rice meal, corn meal, gram meal, etc. These ingredients are used by us almost on a daily basis in our household kitchen. Then how can Kurkure contain plastic.
People should forget about that rumor. Such rumors are only spread to spoil the reputation of a product that is doing well in the market.
Now about the new Kurkure Desi Beats. I did try it, it is very yummy and mouth-watering.
Do taste this new Kurkure Desi Beats, I bet you would like it for sure.

This is just an informative post for all the Kurkure lovers. The recent Kurkure rumor which said that Kurkure contains plastic is purely basless. The same is accepted by the FritoLay Division India which manufactures Kurkure in India.
On the official FritoLay blog, there is a message by the Managing Director of FritoLay India - Mr. Gautham Mukkavilli. He has clearly said that the recent Kurkure controversy which says Kurkure contain palstic. Do not eat Kurkure. Burn Kurkure and you can see plastic melting. All these are just an unnecessary scare that is being spread around. There is no truth in it.
Mr. Mukkavilli also said that Kurkure is a safe and a healthy snack. Kurkure does not contain plastic. There is no plastic in Kurkure. Kurkure is made of edible ingredients including rice meal, corn meal, gram meal, edible oils, salt, spices, condiments and flavors. Kurkure is not harmful to health.
My advice to all the Kurkure lovers. Do not believe on such mails which have no authenticity. Do not burn Kurkure but enjoy eating your Kurkure as you did before.

I had started this blog to write about traveling to international destinations. But today I am writing here on a topic that is totally different from the theme of my blog. The theme of my post today is Kurkure.We all know Kurkure snack. Lately, we have been receiving that mail which says “don”t eat Kurkure”, “Kurkure contains plastic”, “burn Kurkure”, “plastic in Kurkure”, etc.
The truth is that there is no plastic in Kurkure. Kurkure is a healthy and a safe snack which is made from edible ingredients which we daily use in our kitchen.
