Festive Review–Walkers By The Power Of Sausage Roll Flavoured Crisps.

There is nothing that says festive spread more than a sausage roll and as I write, it goes without saying that we have an ample supply of Greggs mini sausage rolls sitting, thanks to Darrell, in our freezer ready for our Stay At Home Boxing Day Buffet.

So, when he also spotted a pack of Walkers Sausage Roll flavour crisps in Home Bargains it would have looked rude of him not to avail himself of some for a bit of a Christmas comestible review.

Let’s just say they were OK, we liked them.

The quality was unmistakably Walkers. Yes, they tasted sausagey, but perhaps not totally unlike a smoky bacon flavour crisp, perhaps we need to get a packet of them too, to do a proper compare and contrast test?

Would we buy them again? Perhaps not, but as a festive novelty, served with a gin and hibiscus tonic water  cocktail,  curtesy of Darrell’s ever flowing and inventive seasonal and celebratory recipe ideas, it would be churlish not to immerse ourselves in the occassion.

And the score on our world famous Richter Scale of Noms? A very creditable three hicks and an indelicate burp out of 5!

For me, curiosity would have killed the cat, if I hadn't tried them out. And, although that isn't a nomtastic score, it isn't bad, at all.

Years ago, I mentioned that, whilst still a student, I bought an Um Bongo, because they claimed they drink it in the Congo. Too sweet, for me, as I was expecting a fruit-juice concoction.

I've never seen this flavour crisp before but you'll never beat Walkers Cheese n Onion Crisps. IMHO. JantheFan x
