Attention all shoppers! Have you heard the news? Walkers has just released a brand new range of crisps and they are now available in supermarkets near you. Exciting, right? But there's a small catch. These new crisps have a unique recipe that sets them apart from the regular ones. Walkers claims that they are "healthier" as they are classified as non-HFSS, meaning they are not high in fat, salt, or sugar.
The new range features two crowd favorites - Wotsits and Monster Munch - but with a twist. These snacks are now made with chickpeas, making them less than 100 calories, 25% lower in salt, and a source of fiber. This means you can now enjoy your favorite snacks guilt-free. And the best part? They come in three delicious new flavors - Cheese Toastie Wotsits, Crispy Bacon Wotsits, and BBQ Sauce Monster Munch.
According to Walkers, it took them years of testing and refining the recipe to create these "light and airy puffed snacks". And now, they are available in sharing bags and multi-packs at various supermarkets in the UK. You can get your hands on them at Morrisons for only £1.65 for a sharing bag or at Tesco and Sainsbury's for £2 for a pack of six.
However, since its launch, the new crisps have received mixed reviews from customers. Some love the new flavors and texture, while others are not so convinced. On social media, people have expressed their opinions about the new crisps. Some, like Paulla Croydon and Michael Teacy, were not impressed, with Michael even calling them "absolutely vile". On the other hand, others like Nic Roberts and Tracy Dickson enjoyed the new snacks and didn't even notice the difference in recipe. It just goes to show that everyone has different tastes.
But Walkers is not the only brand that has recently made changes to their products. Nestlé, the company that owns Walkers, also faced backlash when they tweaked the recipe of their beloved Nesquik milkshake powder. They replaced maltodextrin, a white powder made from corn, rice, potato starch, or wheat, with rice flour. However, this change did not sit well with fans, as they complained about a strange "sludge" in their drink.
Many fans took to social media to express their disappointment with the new recipe. Some even called it "horrible" and "ruined". Nestlé was quick to address these concerns and issued a statement apologizing for the change. They explained that their goal is always to improve their products, but in this case, it did not receive positive feedback from customers. As a result, they will be reverting back to the old recipe in July.
So, have you tried the new Walkers flavors or the new Nesquik recipe? What are your thoughts? We'd love to hear from you. Don't hesitate to share your story by emailing us. At Walkers, they are always looking for ways to bring more variety to their products while maintaining their trademark taste and quality. And they are excited to hear feedback from their customers about the new chickpea-based range. After all, it's the customers who ultimately decide what's on the shelves.
