Yes I'm aware that my crispmas crisp review is.. well just a little late!!!

Oops!

There's nothing wrong with celebrating xmas in February is there? Ok it's completely wrong.

Maybe that's why this flavour doesn't fit quite right with me.. or maybe because it's a slightly sweet version of roast chicken flavour?

Still what was I expecting? Probably exactly that.

I met these guys on a lovely autumnal day down on Brighton seafront where they were selling their treats and giving tasters to the public.. little did they know that there was a connoisseur amongst the crowd who left with the whole range ready for judgement.
Here are the first flavour up on trial, and straight away I can tell that they although the crisps are a little curly - they have been cooked to perfection for maximum crunch. This is a good start.

I have to say I'm not a massive fan of Walkers' chicken flavour crisps - they were always the ones left at the end of a multipack so I tend to shy away from chicken flavour.

But these really do hit chicken in the right way - as a comforting soup. A chicken soup is naturally pretty salty which is why I think this works so well as a crisp flavour. Not sickly, great crunch and a moreish salty chicken flavour.. not bad ten acre, not bad.

The last in the Walkers 'Do us a flavour' reviews and it's Emma G's Chip shop chicken curry.

An interestingly classy choice... and believe me it tastes as cheap as it sounds.

Not necessarily bad or disgusting.. but a little dull. It tastes the normal walkers chicken flavour (not great) mixed in with a bit of gravy and the slightest bit of curry flavouring. I mean slight. It really isn't far off chicken crisps.


Average.

McCoy's deliver another taste sensation in their new range ULTIMATE.

Sizzling BBQ chicken really hits the spot of awesomeness. The deep ridges have amazing crunch and density.

The flavour is off the hook. The chicken flavour is as recognisable as the walkers chicken flavouring, but only a hint of it as your mouth is overwhelmed by the sweet BBQ sauce - and so much more. This bbq is rich with chilli and pepper, in quite an extreme way. The pepper is full on, so you need to be a pepper lover. 

Fortunately I am, and I dig.
