Seven fire trucks respond to Smith Snackfood warehouse fire in South Australia

A spokesperson for Pepsico, who owns the warehouse, confirmed supply 'will not be impacted.' 'A small fire occurred at our Regency Park site overnight and was quickly contained,' they said. 'All team members are safe and the site is now operational.' 'We thank local emergency services for their fast and effective response.'

Zooper Dooper-flavoured Twisties are now a thing (and we have some thoughts)
Don't miss out on the headlines from Food. Followed categories will be added to My News. Chicken or Cheese Twisties? Nah. Over the past few years, Twisties has been getting quite… experimental. From sherbet-y Raspberry Twisties to fancy Caviar Twisties, and a collab with Donut King, Twisties has enlightened us to some pretty wacky flavours — some we've loved more than others. (Twisties if you're reading this, I need Caviar Twisties back in my life.) Now, Twisties has dropped another salty-sweet chip that's like eating our childhood in one wriggly, crunchy snack. Meet… Twisties Zooper Dooper Fairy Floss If I could sum up my childhood of snacking in one snack it would 100% be these Twisties. Our favourite chip and arguably the best flavour in a packet of Zooper Doopers have come together to create one sweet and crunchy, candy-coloured snack. Twisties Zooper Dooper Fairy Floss combines the crunch and taste of a Twistie with the sweet, pink fairy floss flavour of a Fairy Floss Zooper Dooper. A spokesperson for Twisties said: 'Twisties Zooper Dooper Fairy Floss is the ultimate Aussie creation! It's a flavour that is reminiscent of our childhoods in the most unexpected way possible. Doesn't sound too bad T.B.H. What the taste team thinks of Twisties Zooper Dooper Fairy Floss As professional snackers, we feel our opinion really matters when it comes to a chip, especially a weird chip! This is a snack that seriously divided the team. Some loved the sweet and salty combo while others were more of the mindset that 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it' (give 'em a packet of regular Twisties any day). If you're a lolly lover, love a salty-sweet flavour combo (think slightly sweet, slightly salty popcorn), then you'll love the Twisties Zooper Dooper Fairy Floss. When will I be able to buy Twisties Zooper Dooper Fairy Floss? Set to hit independent supermarkets sometime from 30 July, this weird but wonderful snack will only be around for a limited time… so keep your eyes peeled!
