Lay's Lobster Crisps

Unfortunately the taste did not deliver, there was no seafood or even a strong prawn taste.
However, there was a slight prawn smell to it.

Walkers new Wotsit, Doritos and Monster Munch crisps

Walkers have been a bit boring lately so I am glad they have done something.
Basically, they have turned wotsits, doritos and Monster munch snacks into crisps!
I wanted to get dorito crisps but I don't like it spicy so got the Monster Munch first as I do like pickled flavours.
I was planning to try the wotsits crisps but I felt that it will taste similar to the SPUDOS cheese and onion ones because when I tried those, they reminded of crisp wotsits.
To be fair, you can't expect the new creations to be the same because potato crisps and maize snacks are different.
These don't melt in your mouth like maize/corn snacks and the doritos will have a strong maize taste that the crisps wont have.


Monster Munch CRISPS reviewed!!
These were nice in my opinion but I think I can see a love/hate brewing up because they are super acidic like a pickled onion straight from the jar so it depends if you like that.






Also available are wotsits and doritos style crisps @tescofood @walkers_crisps @tescoirl @aldispecialbuysuk

Unpackaged crisps that you season yourself from SPUDOS

As a fan of Salt N Shake, how could I not be a superfan of SPUDOS.
There are six different flavours now with the new KEBAB to shake your crisps with.
In some countries, McDonalds do shake shake fries and recently McCains have done a flavour maker.
Anyway, the SPUDOS range are a success and I was so happy to see them at the QMUL Zero Waste Shop at my uni.
Instructions are simple, you just fill the paper bag with crisps or any container, add the seasoning of your choices and shake.
I liked the way how the seasoning flavoured the crisps without giving it extra saltiness.
To summarize, the nooch and onion, salt and vinegar and the prawn cocktail were my favourites.
Quick tasting notes for each flavour:
nooch and onions: imagine wotsits with a hint of sweet onion
Salt and Vinegar: just as good as any salt and vinegar
Prawn cocktail: tangy and sweet
David Bacon: smoky with a fiery kick
Chip Shop Curry: a mild curry with some sweetness
Doner Kebab: intense spices with a super fiery kick.

Thank you Spudos for kindly sending me all these flavours to try and it was great seeing you all at different places and events!

Harry Ramsdens Salt & Vinegar Hand Cooked crisps (Iceland)

Another nice option for Salt and Vinegar crisps with that extra crunch. I was hoping they would taste like Fish and Chips or like Burtons Fish and Chip snacks.

New Kettle Chips: Sriracha and Mayo, Dill Pickle and Jalapeno from KETTLE Escape Room


I was so chuffed to attend the KETTLE escape room which was on for only one weekend at Shoreditch.
After the escape, you get given the two new flavours: Sriracha Mayo, Dill pickle and Jalapeno.
Before we went in the ESCAPE room, there were samples to try.
The Dill pickle and Jalapeno was obvious because the dill was really prominent while the Sriracha was spicy.
I definitely loved the dill because you can really taste it while the jalapeno wasn't too spicy.

Walkers sensation regal lamb mint and King Prawn cocktail crisps

Walkers sensation regal lamb mint and King Prawn cocktail crisps reviewed!
Walkers have been a bit quiet lately as there hasn't been any new flavours or anything exciting over Christmas.
So when the regal lamb & mint and King Prawn cocktail came out, I just couldn't wait to try them.
Interestingly, everyone has been diving into the prawn cocktail first.
The King prawn cocktail is actually quite nice, I found it quite similar to the regular prawn cocktail flavour but a little stronger in taste.
The regal lamb & mint was interesting, I was surprised how gamey the aroma was as well as the taste.
However, the mint was really disappointing because I could not taste or smell it, I was hoping for a vinegary mint taste but it just wasn't there.
Apart from the gameyness, it was also quite salty.

Torres Selecta Crisps : Iberian Ham Jamon Iberico, Sparkling wine and caviar

A few years ago I got these Spanish brand of crisps which were really impressive.
I never thought that you could get quality crisps in Spain!
Torres have so many flavours and I tried the Iberian Ham Jamon Iberico, Sparkling wine and caviar.
There is also truffle but it is expensive.
The sparkling wine is memorable because of the popping candy.
For the Iberian ham, you get an aftertaste which is like fat bits of Iberico ham melting in ur mouth.
The crisp texture wasn't too hard but I think the Mediterranean Salt flavour is going to taste better. 
Last but not least the caviar is the best as there are bits of dehydrated caviar in it.





Hoping to try the fried egg one day.

Walkers MAX Kentucky Fried Chicken Crisps and MAX double crunch KFC Zinger

Kfc have done a few crossovers with various crisps brands including Lays and Calbee.
I was excited with the Walkers crossover because it was an English favourite brand that tastes good.
Although it was nice, it lacked that kfc spice flavouring and it was quite salty.
The other kfc crossover I tried was Lays KFC bbq which tasted like Lays Masala magic.
In general Lays and Calbee crisps are weirdly sweet for savoury flavours.
Lays and Calbee have some bizarre sweet ones like lemon tea, coffee, melon bingsu and strawberry flavoured crisps.
Rating: 3/5


Walkers MAX double crunch KFC Zinger:
These were not bad and they were very crunchy as claimed.
The taste was quite spicy like a zinger and also very salty.
