NikNaks, also known as "amaNikNaks,"[1] is the brand name for a popular[2] brand of South African Cheese puffs manufactured by the Simba Chips company since 1972.[3] Originally only coming in a "Cheese" flavour. It is normally sold in 55 gram and 135 gram bags, and is primarily made from maize, vegetable oil, salt and cheese.
Though based in South Africa and mostly consumed in the Southern African region, NikNaks are consumed internationally due to South Africa's diaspora.[4]
