If you go to video sharing sites, there are some miscreants who are hellbent on showing that Kurkure has plastic. They take the devious route, playing with fire as they go to show that Kurkure has plastic. However if you notice, they are least bothered about the issue and they are merely adding fuel to the fire sparked by chain mails. Talking about Kurkure plastic is the least of their concern. Their intention is to just spread rumors and falsify the reputation Pespisco and Kurkure has earned in the recent years. However, we should stay away from these rumors of Kurkure plastic because these videos have no credibility.
So people who upload Kurkure plastic videos need to know that their stupid and way-side tactics will not impress anyone. Here is an interesting video that will dispel...

Kunal, a friend who studies in the US has always been a home bird, the real son of soil as they say. Even if he is abroad, he will talk to his friends about the richness and goodness of Indian food, Indian music, Indian movies and Indian women (lol). He once emailed me about how Kurkure Chilli Chataka found a lot of popularity with his firang friends.When his friends were eating donuts and burgers, Kunal bought a couple of packets of Chilli Chataka. They nibbled on it for starters and soon Kunal had to buy a couple more. According to Kunal, these guys were totally flipped over Chilli Chataka. Kunal told them that there are many flavors of Kurkure and though not all flavors were available, he introduced three of them, and all were literally lapped by these guys.Kunal told them what Kurkure...

We decided to have an office party this Diwali. Well, there was a buffet, ice-creams and many things you can conjure, and coincidentally Kurkure outdid them all.

When the meal was served, all of us simply loved the taste. So much that that people from the other groups came to sample for taste. News reached the ears of the CEO who tasted a morsel. But he ended up taking more than...

How much you can trust a rumor of a brand that comes under whiplash for some controversy or the other? For instance, let us take the Kurkure plastic controversy. We now know that Kurkure burns like plastic primarily due to the corn starch content and rice bran oil. But initially some of us began to distrust the brand because of this very rumor However, the Kurkure plastic rumor had a silent death.Not just Kurkure, there were other brands like Cadbury who also had a similar fate. Some elements pull down a brand just to ignite a controversy and savor the sleaze. To the credibility of Kurkure, it did not make a celebrity clear the air about Kurkure plastic, because it has faith in its customers. Yes, the customers saw through the truth and embraced Kurkure, regardless of the plastic rum...

I am saying this for my friend Ashutosh, one of my closest friend during our IIM days. In fact, our bonding has a lot to do with Kurkure. When we used to stay at hostel and miss homemade food, we had Kurkure for company. We spent a lot of times discussing vivas, presentations, group discussions etc with couple of Kurkure as our support system to keep us going.Made from the ingredients that are mostly available at home: rice meal, corn meal, gram meal, edible oil, salt, spices, rice bran oil condiments and flavoring, we would have a great time as we would snack on this healthy food for hours and every topic would turn out extra tangy, extra...

Was attracted to this lovely girl with dainty tresses and milky, soft skin. I befriended her and we hit it on well together. I came to know that she is in my college but was specializing in PCM while yours truly was stuck in zoology. Soon, we would go home together and I felt myself getting mesmerized by her presence. I wanted to ask her out for a date. When I did ask her out of blue by mustering some courage, she said that she dint fancy candle-light dinners and such other frills. All she wanted was lots of chatting and a simple, healthy snack for company. In other words, she was more interested in talking with me and munching something...

We see celebrity ads for Kurkure with actors like Juhi Chawla and Kareena Kapoor in it. But we have never seen them clearning the air about the Kurkure controversy. The reason is simple-they do not need to. The list of ingredients mentioned in the Kurkure packet is enough for people to know the truth.Unlike other brands like Cadbury, which needed an Amitabh to convey to people about the truth of no pesticide and ICICI bank that needed an SRK to silence detractors about the controversy of the bank, Kurkure has kept a stoic and dignified approachKurkure does not need celebrities to clear the air. When there are people like us, commoners who have credible things to say against the Kurkure plastic issue, the brand will feel nothing but proud. When you have the junta backing you, there is no...

Here is a review of the fabulous Kurkure Tamatar Hyderabadi style: These are shaped kind of like crunchy cheese curls, though the individual pieces were usually less irregularly shaped than crunchy curls such as Cheetos.Kurkure Tamatar Hyderabadi is tangy, saucy and an unbeatable combination of taste and zing. Most cheese curls are made from corn meal, but these included the trio of rice, corn and gram, which might account for the variation in look. Biting into it is really fun but the real standout feature was the flavor, a great mix of Indian spices that tasted great and gave an amazing sensation in the mouth.Though it is termed Hyderabadi...

Kurkure is the healthiest of snacks available because of natural home-made ingredients in it. But what is even more healthy and nutritious about this modern-age snack is the quality of oil.

When we know that there is nothing true about Kurkure plastic, and we have showed it with logic and proof, one wonders as to who has spread these lies about Kurkure and Kurkure burning? Well, people behind chain mails and those nasty SMSes are people with ulterior motives. Kurkure lovers have nothing against them because they are waylaid and we all know the worth of this nutritious snack. Instead of criticizing the folks and detractors who said Kurkure has plastic, we would say please do not indulge in such things just for the sake of spreading bad news, and doing mischief, because it DOES NOT WORK. Instead, such kind of bad news can only make the brand more visible So Kurkure without an iota of plastic has definitely benefited from this bad news. So thank you all for improving the visibility...

Some time ago, the Kurkure Plastic rumors picked up the fancy of some channels of media. Without investigating the veracity of these claims, they began to spread the news and then, started a flurry of chain mails and text messages which circulated such information, without any iota of truth in it.

To make sure that I am on the right footing about Kurkure rumors, I decided to some research.

Rumors either turn into reality or at best remain rumors. Kurkure Plastic is one such rumor that needs to vanish in thin air. Since we know that the things that are used in Kurkure are the ones that are used for preparing home food, there is hardly any room to entertain this rumor. The ingredients that are involved in Kurkure are rice meal, corn, gram meal, salt, spices, condiments and flavoring.Those who point to Kurkure burning, should understand any carbohydrate based food product with 30 percent oil content will behave in that manner. Try it with poppadums; you will get the same result. To top it all, Kurkure oil is nothing but bran oil, rich in low saturated fat. Since Kurkure is a healthy food as well as tasty one at that, there is no way one can stop having Kurku...

The stupid Kurkure Plastic rumors that gained ground in the recent past, point to one thing: if a brand has resonance with people, it is very hard to topple it out of competition. It is not with the case of Kurkure alone, there have been many successful brands that found themselves in soup with some odd controversy popping in to temporarily ruin the reputation of a brand. Goodness does prevail and these acts to sabotage the popularity of a brand or a company by competitors, disgruntled employees or people with frivolous mindsets do not really last long. True sense does prevail and people are wise enough to discern the right from the wrong.Videos were put on video sharing sites citing that Kurkure had plastic in it. But the reality was from it. Any edible product with 30 percent oil and corn...

Everyone knows about the plastic in Kurkure rumors that hounded the popular snack food in India. Popular brands find themselves at the receiving end of criticism and whiplash, due to seeds of suspicion planted in the consumer mind by rival companies, frustrated employees or miscreants who simply love to play spoilsport. At times, consumers who have had problems with a certain brand may use the same yardstick to assess all brands dealing in similar products.Coming to Kurkure, the rumors of plastic were baseless allegations. The popular snack food brand is a product of Pepsi, one of the reputed brands in the world. The ingredients present in Kurkure are the ones used for making home-made food: rice meal, corn meal, gram meal, edible oil, salt, spices, condiments and flavors. Also, the edible...

I am somewhat disturbed by silly about Kurkure having plastic, especially when those rumors are baseless. In today’s competitive world, it is but natural for rivals to pull down a success story with scant regard for ethics. However, this move to spread rumors in the form of SMSes and chain mails that Kurkure has plastic or ‘Kurure burns’ is really going below the belt. To set the record right, Kurkure is a modern snack launched in 2001 by FritoLay, the snack food division of PepsiCo India. The ingredients present in Kurkure are mostly the ones we use in home: rice meal, corn meal, gram meal, edible oil, salt, spices, condiments and flavors...
