Chicky Chips - Chicken

15/10/2012

Found in Dubai, from the Philippines.

Massive crisps, texture is really cheap, puffed wheat- similar to the really cheap version of frazzles that you get in british pubs. Cheap like the type that if left out for longer than 2 minutes would go stale. Seasoning is not spread well, some crisps are covered but most are under seasoned. Chicken flavour isn't too bad, it's just not on enough of the crisps.

Found in Dubai.

Walkers style crunch, flavour below average, they taste quite like roast chicken, but a bit burnt.

Rostik - Cuttlefish

10/10/2012

Found in Dubai, from the Orient.

No surprise on my opinion here really.. They stink to hell of rotten fish, but luckily they actually taste of NOTHING- there is literally no flavour, might as well be chewing on polystyrene.

Mr. Krisps - Cheez Balls

10/10/2012

Found in Dubai.

These guys won a food award for Cheez balls in 1994, are still banging on about it on the cover! Pretty much the same as the cheap tescos cheese balls.. So not too shabby.

Eww! Tastes like sweet fish cheese flavour to me! Soggy crisps with a pretty sickly flavour.

Bingo - Chilli Dhamaka

10/10/2012

Found in Dubai, made in India.

Looking up the word dhamaka, it translates to 'explosion' so you'd expect something pretty spicy for a 'chilli explosion' This is not an explosion of flavour, but a mild pickled chilli.. Disappointment.

Bingo - Achaari Masti

10/10/2012

Found in Dubai, made in India.

This is a very specific flavour, that if I knew traditional Indian cooking better, maybe I might recognise the flavour.. To me it tastes like chillis, pickles and lime (which judging by the picture on the packet I think is what it's suppose to be) definitely the most bearable of the bingo range, but still has that cheap crunch to it, and a pretty strange flavour.

Bingo - Tomato Mischief

10/10/2012

Found in Dubai, made in India.

The crunch is similar to the cheap versions of frazzled you get in pubs (crap) tomato flavour is way too sweet.

Rostik - Chicken Curry

10/10/2012

Found in Dubai. From the Orient.

Similar shape to nik- naks, but way too soft/sickly. Flavour is spicy, sickly chicken. Not amazing.

Potato Sticks - Salt

10/10/2012

Found in Dubai.

Crisps in a tin? Amazing! Pretty standard potato sticks, like the cheap tescos ones.. Still - in a tin!
