They are formed in an extruder and then shot out of the round die which puffs them up a bit. Quite a noisy process. I worked at a cereal plant.

An extruding machine
You need to watch more TV
Just like donuts
Go visit you 'Crispy Creams' and watch the production line.
I did that back in 1948 at the local grocery (pre supermarket)

They use an extruder.
Reminds me of Anya commenting on the fine woven handcraftsmanship of Chex. Awesome.

They are extruded through a metal die and then baked.

The same way they put holes in doughnuts - disgusting.
