We are totally overwhelmed that so many of you have decided to join us, crisp packets akimbo on our quest to win £50,000 in the Walkers “What’s The Flavour” Contest ……
For the past twenty four hours, we have adhered to a robust preparation schedule, we have scraped our tongues and brushed our teeth diligently and have only consumed foods of a bland type nature, to ensure that our palates are in prime condition for the challenge we face.
We shall start with Flavour No. A ….. they appear to be a normal crisp colour although they have a few black specks (which we assume is an infusion of spices as opposed to an insect infestation)
There is a definite cheesy whiff about them ….. the flavour is mild and subtle at first ….. followed by a slight kick which we have failed to identify …… perhaps vinegar?
….. After some discussion we have surmised that they could be sour cream cheese dip flavour with chives.
Moving on to Mystery Flavour No.B …… these are quite red in colour with the smell and tang of a very powerful foreign spicy sausage.
Nigel's primed palette also seemed to pick up on a strong tomato over/undertone …… so we are going to guess the Mystery Flavour as salami/pepperoni and tomato with a touch of paprika.
And finally Flavour No.C ….. again we could not help but notice the slight red colouration to these crisps …..
……. but without the previous slight uncertainty of the other crisps, we all reached the same conclusion simultaneously and immediately ……. these are definitely Balti flavour!
…… and our crisp of choice from the three we have tasted, although if we were to be so bold …… we are not really enamoured by any of them and would not go out of our way to try them again, you just cannot improve on cheese and onion or salt and vinegar …… nomtastic! We shall now get Darrell to register our guesses …… and await our cheque!!
wait i think that sausage must be chorizo..
ReplyDeletehavent tried then tho. cant find em anywhere
ReplyDeleteI think the name "sour cream cheese dip flavour with chives" is too big for the packet. It may be simply "Cheese and chives." Or do you think they will be names like "Cheese and Owen?"
ReplyDeleteThe next could be "Spicy tomato and pepperoni." Athyn - good call on the chorizo but maybe chorizo isn't a common enough word for a crisp packet.
Cheese and onion, Bovril or Barbecue beef for me.
You are obivously professional tasters with refined taste buds at work on this...Hoping you cracked the flavour code and fame and fortune await.....Fingers crossed while you wait for that call from Walker's.......Dianne
ReplyDeletei haven't tried them do they say suitable for vegetarians on the pack i would go with a Choizo flavour as its the first thing that came to mind even with out tasting as its every were at the mo you cant turn on the TV or go to a restaurant with out it having it some were on the menu
ReplyDeleteMarc, I bow down before your superior knowledge about chorizo sausage in the UK, not having lived there for almost eight years.
ReplyDeleteMum might say "Chorizo sausages akimbo in the restaurants of England." Have they reached the menu at the Molineux or do the locals just order a "kipper tie" to drink?
