Great news for all you Walkers crisps lovers out there! The iconic brand has just launched a new flavour that is sure to delight your taste buds. And if you're a fan of Walkers crisps, there's probably one flavour that you've been missing and hoping to see make a comeback – barbecue. Who could forget the black packet of crisps that first hit the shelves in the 1990s? Sadly, they were quietly phased out a few years later, and even their replacement, the BBQ Ribs flavour, was also discontinued. But fear not, because the beloved BBQ flavour has made a brief appearance in 2023 as a limited-edition special, only to disappear once again.
But it seems like the fans of this flavour have not given up hope. On social media, there have been countless cries for Walkers to bring back the iconic black packet BBQ crisps. One avid fan on Reddit, u/UnreliableChemist, expressed their longing for the flavour, saying, "Feel like pure s**t just want BBQ Walkers back." And they're not alone. Other fans, like u/Jimbobhas and u/Inner-Thing321, have also shared their love for the original BBQ flavour, with one even declaring it as the best ever flavour.
It seems like their prayers have been answered, in a way. Walkers has just revealed a new flavour that is strikingly similar to the old favourite. The new Smokin' BBQ Sauce flavour, sold in black packets, is made with 100% Great British potatoes and has a smoky BBQ sauce flavour that is bound to give fans a brand-new taste sensation. And the best part? You don't have to wait long to try them, as they are already available in Tesco supermarkets nationwide. Sainsbury's shoppers can get their hands on them from September 2, and Morrisons will be launching them in October.
Stephanie Herbert, Marketing Senior Brand Manager from Walkers, shared her excitement about the new flavour, saying, "For years, Walkers fans have been calling out for a BBQ flavour to join our core range. We've heard those calls loud and clear, so we can't wait for crisp lovers nationwide to try out the brand-new Walkers Smokin' BBQ Sauce flavour!"
But that's not all – Walkers has also released a collaboration with Heinz, featuring limited-edition crisps inspired by classic sandwiches. The flavours include Roast Chicken and Heinz Mayo, Sausage Sarnie and Heinz Ketchup, and Cheese Toastie with Heinz Beanz. While some may find the baked beans flavour a bit controversial, Walkers promises that these sandwich inception crisp flavours will level up your lunches. These new flavours are available in supermarkets nationwide, so make sure to grab a bag before they're gone.
The new Smokin' BBQ Sauce flavour is available in single packs, multipacks, and grab bags, with prices ranging from £1 to £2. And if you're excited about the return of the Walkers BBQ flavour crisps, don't forget to share your thoughts in the comments. And while you're at it, why not try out the other new flavours too? Who knows, you might just find a new favourite. So hurry and grab a bag of these limited-edition crisps before they're all gone. Do you have a story to share about your love for Walkers crisps?
