Walkers have released six new flavours of crisps as part of their "Do Us A Flavour" promotion. The unique flavours were all submitted by members of the public and now it's up to the rest of us to vote for our favorite. The flavours are; Hot Dog with Tomato Ketchup, Pulled Pork in a Sticky BBQ Sauce, Sizzling Steak Fajita, Chip Shop Chicken Curry, Cheesy Beans on Toast, and Ranch Racoon. I've listed them in the order that the flavor appeals to me, from most to least. The last ones, the raccoon flavour, sound horrible to me (sorry to whoever put forward that flavour!). I'd love to know which ones initially stand out to you from those flavours - let me know in the comments below!
The Vote Sarah's Hot Dog with Tomato Ketchup flavor was instantly the one that caught my eye. I just have a thing for ketchup flavoured crisps and I was pleased to find that this new flavor has the same sweet tomato sauce taste. It's joined by a smokey meaty flavor that tastes just like a Frankfurter hot dog. It's meaty without being too overpowering, and the sweet ketchup flavor is not dominated by the hot dog. Overall, I thought this was a great flavour, and it will take some beating for my vote. The pack I bought was slightly larger than normal (40g) so I shared it out with the hubby and kids and they all really enjoyed it too.
Which flavor will you be voting for?
