Talk:Puffed rice

High pressure and steam
Is it possible to make puffed rice in a kitchen without high pressure and steam? Popcorn is similar isn't it? Joepnl (talk) 23:55, 18 September 2010 (UTC)

Puffed rice in different languages
I like that the article has a table showing how to say puffed rice in different languages. It is not in every article on Wikipedia you get to see those kinds of things :P —Kri (talk) 13:14, 16 March 2013 (UTC)

Requested move 13 August 2020

 * The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion. 

The result of the move request was: Moved. There doesn't seem to be any unique new info on the dab/stub hybrid currently at the title, so that can be deleted. &mdash; Amakuru (talk) 07:12, 22 August 2020 (UTC)

Muri (food) → Puffed rice – Last year, this article was moved without discussion from the general title about puffed rice and its variants to the specific Indian title, and a dab was created in its place. (Someone else expanded that dab a little bit). I wish to revert this change as there is no need to seperate the Indian food from the rest. Additionally, the article was not actually made to be about the Indian dish, it continued to keep general information about industrial puffed rice production.

Since muri is a subtopic of puffed rice, merging it back into the general article could be done through regular editing without a move discussion, and that is what I had already begun doing (see this version of the article as it was yesterday, the intro was about muri but the production section was not), however the technical request to move the page to keep its history was contested so this is now a RM.

 * Ugh, this is sort of messy. It looks like this page was moved to muri to create a new page at puffed rice. However, a year an a half later, that one remains a weird stub/disambiguation/short list, whereas this one seems to still be about puffed rice in general and not just in India. So I'd support.--Yaksar (let's chat) 18:50, 13 August 2020 (UTC)

Add'l name
As a street food, this is actually known as mipaotang (米泡糖, "popped rice candy") in Shanghai and northern Zhejiang at least. Not sure if it's a local variant name, variant idea on the base snack, or a general synonym though. — Llywelyn II   02:26, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
