For this to happen, the material must be either completely or partly in a fluid form so that it doesn\u2019t block the opening when operating under reasonable pressure conditions. Examples of extruded foods include pastas, breakfast cereals, cookie dough, potato chips, baby food, dry pet food and ready-to-eat snacks.
