Walkers Roast Chicken Crisps

...can't get a packet of Walkers Roast Chicken Crisps. Er, except me, forty minutes ago when I popped to the shops to get a packet to review and the first three places didn't have any. == Get on with it, for the love of God! == Well, quite. Just as they did when I last ate them twenty years ago, Walkers Roast Chicken crisps come in a sort of orangey coloured foil packet illustrated with tempting pictures of golden potato slices that are probably supposed ...
...an enormous Walkers logo. I think it says a lot when a brand logo is bigger than the picture of the actual product, don't you? I opened the packet at the bottom, as a sop to my pointless non-conformity of childhood (although the justification used to be that all the surplus flavouring fell to the bottom of the bag) and pulled out a thin yellowy disc about the size and general shape of a teabag. Reader, I bit it. === Texture === I hope you're enjoying ...

Review of Walkers Roast Chicken Crisps

...like, things like the mighty Walkers sensations and I just love salt and vinegar Pringles but there is also a less exciting and more down to earth crisp that I love and that is the humble Roast chicken flavour Walkers. When I was younger the chicken flavour crisps were seen as the ugly duckling of the multi-pack, they were always the ones left till last or sometimes even left to go out of date. Neither me nor my brother would touch them and my mum ...
...flavours I eat from a Walkers multi-pack is now the roast chicken, the bags are still not as attractive as the others being a somewhat dull and uninteresting murky shade of orangey yellow but the smell I once disliked as you opened a packet of chicken crisps now for some reason seems to get my mouth watering. There are many things involved in a crisp being a good crisp, it has to have the right type of crunch, it has to have a nice tasting flavour ...

Review of Walkers Roast Chicken Crisps

...with three empty packets of Walkers Roast Chicken crisps. The flavour was (as I have said in the above paragraph) a mix of gravy granules and chicken, it tastes quite nice as the chicken flavour compliments the potato crisps rather like gravy on chips. I enjoyed it once I got used to the smell, it's a savoury taste and if you like roast dinner you'll probably like them but the flavour is a little artificial. Unlike other brands of crisps I've tried, ...
...the packaging for roast chicken Walkers is golden. Nutrional value is printed on the back of the packet. Information per 25g pack: Energy: 545 kj, 131 kcal Protein: 1.5 g Carbohydrate: 12.8 g Fat: 8.2 g Fibre: 1.0 g Sodium: 0.12 g (Not exactly good if I was on a diet.)

Review of Walkers Roast Chicken Crisps

...concepts they continue to market. Walkers crisps are very much close to my heart because they were invented in Leicester, which is 10 minutes away from me, by a butcher named Henry Walker hence the Walkers crisps. He started out in the late 1880s but by 1945 meat was hard to get hold of so he began cooking and selling sliced potatoes such a simple idea that would take the world by storm! By 1954 flavoured crisps were bought in and the infamous Cheese ...
...the most recent builders breakfast. Walkers continue to amaze us and keep on trend with their new products and sell different type of crisp all the time such as Walkers lite, max and baked. All this and I am proud to say they haven’t shipped out all of the hard work to countries abroad to cash in further they have stayed faithful and are based in a village called Thurmaston. MY FAVOURITE Now I have told you about Walkers let me tell you all about ...

Review of Walkers Roast Chicken Crisps

...Background ------------------------- Walkers are probably the best known crisps manufacturers in the UK, having been in the business for many years and becoming experts in their field. Walkers do a wide range of "flavoured potato crisps" as the packet refers to them as, including traditional crisps in vast flavours such as; ready salted, salt and vinegar, cheese and onion, prawn cocktail and many more. They also do promotional packs in their range ...
...packet comes with the large Walkers logo predominantly on the front of the pack, so you know you are getting good quality immediately. Usually any promotions are on the front of the pack also. It always makes me giggle the most of Walkers "meaty" flavoured crisps are suitable for vegetarians, but I suppose that's a nice thing for those veggies who like a bit of smoky bacon or roast chicken every now and then! All nutritional information and best ...

Review of Walkers Roast Chicken Crisps

...45p a packet I guess Walkers crisps are reasonable value for money, although the new Grab bag and Family bags do offer slightly better value if you are into crisps, and sharing. Quality wise there are few other brands that can truly compare to Walkers, whose various varieties are of an exceptional standard. Quality aside though the quantity seems to be diminishing, or perhaps I’m just a bit more greedy than I used to be. I always seem to want more ...
...as I mentioned value can be had by purchasing the larger packs, I’m not usually greedy enough to eat a whole packet of this option. If I think about it I can honestly say that there are perhaps three flavours which are my real favourites, Cheese and Onion, which are just adorable on a buttered roll, Slat and vinegar for the movies, and Roast Chicken for when the urge takes me, which it appears to do more often these days. Of course it could be said ...

Review of Walkers Roast Chicken Crisps

Walkers crisps have been around now for well over 60 years now. A gentleman called Henry Walker took over a butchers shop in the 1880's but after the second World War he saw production go down and had to look for other ways to make money. He began hand-slicing and frying potatoes and sold them as potato crisps, the first flavour being Cheese and Onion. Now there are so many flavours to choose from the choice is overwhelming but I am going to review ...
...lovely. I have always liked Walkers crisps for a nice plain crisp and these lived up to their reputation. There is a good covering of flavour on all the crisps so you get a nice taste with every bite. The crisps are lovely and light and crunchy too. That might have something to do with the fact that they are now cooked in sunseed oil which, they say, is naturally high in mono-unsaturates and lower in saturates. I also like the fact that the potatoes ...

Review of Walkers Roast Chicken Crisps

***ABOUT WALKERS*** Walkers are best known for manufacturing crisps in a great range of different and popular flavours such as Cheese & Onion, Salt & Vinegar, Ready Salted, Steak & Onion, Smoky Bacon, Prawn Cocktail, Pickled Onion and more great mouth-watering flavours. Walkers sponsor Leicester City football team’s stadium, the Walkers Stadium. Gary Linekar who was formally a Leicester City footballer is the face of Walkers and I’m sure many of ...
...In 2006 Walkers announced that they were to reduce the saturated fat in their crisps by 70%. They started frying their crisps in Sunseed Oil. They also added Nutritional Information to the front of their crisps as well. In 1997, Walkers became the brand name of Quavers and Monster Munch snacks. In 2002 Walkers also bought Wotsits from Golden Wonder and in 2007 Walkers launched the Sunbites range which is a yummy range of crisps made using wholegrains. ...

Review of Walkers Roast Chicken Crisps

...and was pleasantly surprised. Walkers have been making crisps since just after the 2nd world war. They started out in Leicester but now employ over 4000 employees over 15 locations and are considered Britain's favourite crisp. They also come in other size packaging's - 34.5g packs - single serve 50g packs - for a big eat experience! 175g packs - for those sharing occasions As well as multipacks of 6,12,18 or 24 packets. I bought them from Sainsbury's ...
...gm. The packaging is mainly all orange with a picture of some lightly fried crips on the bottom. There is a logo that states - 'Same great taste... Now better for you' So lets see. On opening the packet, which is all foil for sealed in freshness, the first thing I noticed is a lovely smell of roasted chicken. If you've ever bought a hot ready baked chicken from Tesco's or Morrisons, that is the smell and I'm sure if you have you'll know exactly ...

Review of Walkers Roast Chicken Crisps

...bag of good old fashioned Walkers Crisps...today's choice, Roast Chicken flavour. Taken from one of the 6 x 25g packs which cost approximately £1.23 from the likes of Tescos and Asda, the first thing that strikes you at the moment is the paraphernalia which covers the orange package due to Walkers' ongoing competition to save money on trips around the UK. But that's just a sideshow; you're all obviously wondering what they taste like. Well, of course ...
...manufactured. Fear not though, the Walkers Sensations version are even better...but obviously cost a lot more. For those on a budget, and craving roast chicken flavoured crisps, I'm scratching my brain to think of another type which is so widely available. Here's the important nutritional details for you all, along with the recommended daily allowance for a 2000 calorie per day diet... 131 Calories (7% of RDA) 1g Sugar (1%) 8.2g of Fat (12%) 0.6g ...

Review of Walkers Roast Chicken Crisps

...reading everyone else’s interpretation of Walkers Roast Chicken Crisps, I thought I would join in the debate. First of all crisps taste nothing like the actual flavour they are meant to be, fact! I mean I love cheese and onion in a sandwich but would rather lick a tramp than the crisp equivalent. I hate prawn cocktails but it’s my favourite flavour of the Walkers crisps range. In fact, Tomato Ketchup flavour, though not as freely available and popular ...
...each packet. In recent times, Walkers have bowed to the whole thing where everyone now wants to know how much nutrition, fat, salt etc is in the product. It all makes no difference to people wanting a packet of crisps. Moaning aside this is a review of Walkers Roast Chicken Crisps. Walkers are definitely the market leader when it comes to crisps; their distinctive brand logo and packet colours make them the envy of other crisp manufacturers. The ...

Review of Walkers Roast Chicken Crisps

...brand must surely be Walkers. Walkers have been around for as long as I can remember and have been the number one brand in my house for a long time. I have always eaten walkers with the traditional flavours such as cheese & onion, salt & vinegar and ready salted being my favourites. When I first tried the roast chicken flavoured crisps I have to say I didn’t really no what to expect… and what was the verdict???? Well I guess that’s what this review ...
...The bag has a large Walkers symbol on the front and the words Roast Chicken flavour crisps just so you know what your getting I guess. I think the design for this product is pretty good and very eye catching and the Walkers logo is very prominent and is easy to recognise. On the back of the packet is the nutritional information and some jargon about the about the new oil that the crisps are cooked in called sunseed oil which is low in saturates ...

Review of Walkers Roast Chicken Crisps

...am, writing this review on Walkers Roast Chicken Crisps. Having never done a review on any food or drink before, I will appreciate any comments. :) Walkers Roast Chicken crisps come in an orange packet. The packet that I am consuming at this minute is from a multipack, and therefore has the words "Multipack bag, not for individual Sale" Printed in red in a yellow strip at the bottom. The packet also boasts the Walkers' logo and the words "Roast ...
...The back of the 25g packet is in white with black writing, which makes it easier to read. It has a small story about rain and farmers, but I have never paid attention to that before writing this review. The important thing, to me anyway, is that Walkers' crisps are cooked with sun seed oil, making them naturally high in mono-unsaturates and lower in saturates. I don't exactly know what mono-unsaturates are but I do know that saturates are bad, and ...

Review of Walkers Roast Chicken Crisps

...of course I have tried Walkers Roast Chicken flavoured crisps! Who hasn’t? After all Walkers is one of the most popular and well known brands of snacks in the country, and I asked a friend to name 10 different flavours, not only could she do it, but she named Roast Chicken as one of them. Surely this shows their popularity? Or does it? I have to start by saying that I have not always been a crisp fan, but on the occasion that I do buy them, I always ...
...The Beginning Walkers was started by a man called Henry Walker after world war II, he didn’t invent crisps, but at this time crisps were starting to become popular as a snack and so using waste from the factory he had taken over, he started getting the company to start frying potatoes. The company is now owned by Frito Lay and an estimated 11 million people eat one of the snacks daily, obviously we all think of Gary Lineker when we think of Walkers, ...

Review of Walkers Roast Chicken Crisps

...while in the Uk, the Walkers seem to be the nicest. I tend to like flavours like salt and vinegar or cheese and onions more but chicken flavour are not a bad standby if my favourites are not available to buy. The crisps feel slightly greasey and leave a small amount of flavouring on the hands during handling. Tastewise the crisps are nice enough, although in reality they do not taste much like roast chicken, which is a hard flavour to replicate ...
...the flavour "Roast Chicken with Sage and Onion Stuffing" just to add a little more flavour to the crisps. They are still really nice though, and I recommend them. It is a shame that they do not sell these in the larger bags though, but that seems to be reserved for the most popular flavours (cheese and onion, salted, salt and vinegar, etc) The crisps also smell quite nice, not overpowering but rather sublte and a little like chicken. So to finish ...
