Why Do My Takis Have Less Powder?
Last updated
Ever munched into a bag of Takis only to find they’re not as coated in that zesty, spicy powder as usual? Let’s dive into why your Takis might have less powder than expected.
It’s a common snack-time mystery. You open a bag of Takis, expecting a blast of flavor with every bite, only to find some pieces are less coated than others. What gives?
The Short Answer
The amount of powder on Takis can vary due to the manufacturing process. Factors like the mixing, seasoning, and packaging phases all play a role in how evenly the powder coats each tortilla chip.
During the making of Takis, the tortillas are first rolled, then seasoned. The seasoning process isn’t always perfect, which can result in uneven distribution of the powder. Moreover, as the chips travel from the factory to store shelves, they tumble and jostle inside the bag, causing some of the powder to fall off or collect at the bottom.
