LINE of SNACKS

  A BLOG for snack industry communications and questions, answered by the seasoned consultants of LINE of SNACKS (LoS) Consultants International. The experienced personnel of LoS make journal entries and comments and answer questions for improving the operations of snack companies who produce savory snacks like TORTILLA CHIPS (from masa flour or corn cooking), POTATO CHIPS, CORN CHIPS, EXTRUDED SNACKS (curls or puffs), MULTIGRAIN CHIPS, and NEW SNACK FOOD PRODUCTS.

  LoS personnel are experienced in masa flour mixing or corn cooking/milling to make highest quality tortilla chips or corn chips. They are trained and proficient in processing extruded products of high quality, and in frying potato chips (crisps).

  The LoS consultants are available for work anywhere in the world, having improved products for over 110 companies in 22 countries all over the world. Their work to improve tortilla chip quality in a Comprehensive Improvement Program includes three key phases: (1) upgrading the operation of the line equipment (with special emphasis on corn cooking equipment and toast oven operation), (2) optimizing the process conditions to give a "honeycomb" texture in tortilla chips, and (3) installing process control to maintain highest quality and prevent "drift" off center of parameters of processing.

  LoS has been (1) improving snack company process and management operations and (2) solving plant and manufactring problems and (3) developing new products and processes, and (4) presenting a seminar for manufacturing personnel entitled "High Quality Tortilla Chip Processing" (with additional training) for snack makers all over the world since 1990.

 These high level consultants work on a per day consulting fee and expenses. They are willing to make a 2 to 3 day assessment trip to any company facility in the U.S. for expenses only.

 LoS clients over the past 15 years include the largest companies in the world and small companies with work programs from one day up to a full-scale Optimization  Program of 8 to 10 manweeks of work (plus, depending on the company's needs).
