THERE’S nothing quite as satisfying as digging into a tasty packet of crisps.

But food fans have been left horrified after it was revealed how one popular brand of the tasty snack is really made.

This comes after crisp lovers got a glimpse inside the factory where Quavers are made, as comedian Paddy McGuinness explored took a look as part of the BBC‘s Inside The Factory series.

Things started off as you might expect, that is until is was revealed that Quavers aren’t even technically classic as crips.

This is because Quavers are made from the potato starch powder, which left behind during the crisp-making process – who knew?

So, how are Quavers made?

First starch powder, fine rice and soya flours are mixed together to make a dough.

Then the mixture is passed through a machine where it comes out looking a lot more like lasagne sheets than the cheesy snack we all know and love.

The huge sheets are then quickly cooled and cut by a machine at rate of 7,900 a minute.

The small sections are then added to sunflower to cook, which is when they begin to look a little more familiar.

The hot of the oil transforms any water to steam, which puffs them up into the cheese curls.

Finally, the cheesy coating is added as the Quavers travel through a huge metal drum.

But after watching the process some viewers weren’t so keen on snacking to Quavers anymore.

One person wrote on social media: “Inside the factory is interesting and horrifying in equal measure. Industrialised production of ‘food’ ain’t pretty.”.

And a second said: Inside the factory should be required viewing to realise what Big Food is up to.”

Meanwhile, someone else quipped: “There’s a lot of work goes into making the humble Quaver!”

“I don’t think I’ll be buying any more Quavers after this,” another chimed in.

That said, not everyone was bothered by the revelation.

One food fan wrote: I must start eating less processed food. Also me: I really fancy a bag of Quavers after watching Inside the Factory,” one Twitter use joked.

And another simply wrote: “Do I give a flying fig how they make Quavers?”
