Giving pickled onion monster munch 0.5. time to unsubscribe 🤣
I think he will make a full and frank apology in his next vidya or he’ll have a mass exodus on his hands the JUDUS!
Absolutely criminal he should be locked up
Here with you there, pickled onion monster munch are divine!
Pickled onion monster munch is ELITE! JT just lost standing in my book
Yeh that is criminal, i mean not liking jaffa cakes is one thing but this. Dont mention it if you come over here 😜
I will never get bored of hearing Americans try and pronounce Worcestershire 😂😂😂
I’m British I say wer-chester-shire
Im from Worcestershire and it’s pronounced wus tur sheer by the locals
People often break the word up incorrectly. They read it as Wor-cester-shire instead of Worce-ster-shire.
From here on in.... I am calling it Wash Your Sister Sauce 😂😂😂😂
@tom polski that's how I pronounce it.
JT, Anna,
When crisps and snacks in the UK are described as "Prawn Cocktail Flavour", there are no prawns, shrimps or any other kind of fish in them; not only that, but they're not even prawn or shrimp flavour - Their flavour is the sauce that's served over prawns in a prawn cocktail. This is Marie Rose sauce, which is basically tomato flavoured mayonnaise.
The more you know 🤯
That m’darlin, is the “sawce from a fousand islands” Micky Flanagan.
Yep we know
@@torhockers1482 "brought to you in this steakhouse in Bethnal Green"
traditionally for many years, salt and vinegar were blue in the UK, and cheese and onion were green and yellow, the Walkers messed everything up by making their salt and vinegar green and yellow, older people in the UK still wonder why they did it... many other makers still use blue for salt and vinegar and yellow/green for cheese and onion.
That’s been heavily disproven. It’s just a classic case of the mandala affect. You can Easily find it out when no one can give actual dates as to when this happened. There are even 20 year olds saying they remember when they were opposite way round. I’m 38 and they’ve always been the colour they are now. My dad is 73 and doesn’t remember them being being opposite colour.
I genuinely just believe people forget that not all walkers crisps are in the colour way for each type, for example walkers squares. The salt and vinegar are blue and the cheese and onion are green.
I know some people get really offended when I/people point this out, so please don’t come for me.
i'm 49, i lived through it. its true. i litterally have blue salt and vinegar crisp in my kitchen with blue packaging now, made by other brands. not coming at you, just disagreeing. I'm not saying walkers used to be a different colour, they may well have always been those colours, what i'm saying is, there was i time when walkers didn't exist, or weren't widely available, and every other popular readily available brand tended to be blue for salt and vinegar and yellow/green for cheese and onion, when walkers came along or became more popular with their different colours it caused confusion. @@stacywearing8649
Salt and vinegar used to be blue. Made sense. Salt. Sea. Cheese and onion used to be green. Onions. I'm 57. It happened. (Plus the Mandela effect is just people mis-remembering over years or just plain not knowing). Walkers have always been the colours they are but I remember when Golden Wonder were the popular crisp before Walkers became dominant. Golden Wonder where green for cheese and onion. FACT. NOT THE MANDELLA EFFECT.
@@antonyeastham4564 Exactly! thank you! I never said Walkers changed their own colours, they were always different as far as I recall, but they didn't always "exist", or certainly weren't always a market leader. Walkers changed the paradigm when they came along with their unintuative "non standard" colours. Golden Wonder and Smiths (I think walkers now own Smiths) were independent back then and were the most popular brands, they were, and maybe still are, blue for S&V, green and yellow for C&O. Benson's were the same, plus the others, and supermarket brands followed suit, it was like an unofficial standard. Re Mandela effect, yes, I believe it comes from a popular trope that people thought he had died long before he did, and when he did eventually die, it confused people that thought he had been dead for ages already, its basically something created by people with bad memories to make them feel better :)
@@stacywearing8649 Absolute rubbish. Nearly every manufacturer of crisps have blue for salt n vinegar. Only Walkers had tio be different.
The lack of Thai Sweet Chilli Sensations is an absolute tragedy
If they had every flavour the vid would be a hour long 😂
@@jt5765 True lol
Not to mention roast chicken and thyme!
also the mini popadomm crisps they do
Sensations full stop all flavours are lush
Pickled Onion Monster Munch was the best crisp in that whole box. Can't believe you hated it, it's an absolute classic. British pubs used to just serve up pickled onions as a bar snack. Beautiful.
Yanks haven't got are fine taste buds .and they call them chips .no class
And pair that with Beerenberg burger relish (don't know if you get that in UK) and it will blow your mind.
I read a while ago about a guy who chopped up pickled onions, fried them, and put them on a bacon sandwich. Last thing I heard he had transcended this reality.
@@EmpyreanSasarai yes that's what happened. Or did it
i am so old i remember when they sold pickled eggs in pubs and you would tear open your crisps and they would plonk the egg in the bag ,yummy
Anyone old enough to remember Hedgehog flavour crisps in the 80's ?
yep and it raised a shed load of money for Tiggywinkles a wildlife charity.
As someone from worcestershire this was hilarious. Also prawn cocktail walkers and pickled onion monster munch are by far the best ones in that box 😭
Agreeeeed
Try mcoys prawn cocktail 👍🏼👌🏻
If y’all want punchy Salt & Vinegar crisps, you gotta get Disco’s! Those things will literally take the buds off your tongue 😂
Nah salt & vinegar Golden Wonders are the worst/best to take your buds off, id say twice as bad/good as discos, give them a try! home bargains sells them here.
You guys never had the salt and vinegar crunchy sticks?
Used to get them from QualitySave
@@sparkles1718 GW are pretty good but I still think discos are stronger
@@samhilton4173 still get them here also. I find them pretty weak…mccoys are stronger 😂
@@zionow3844 yh discos are chelsea smile terrertory
Fun fact! The reason we call ours "Ready Salted" is because when crisps first came around in the UK, they weren't pre-salted, they were in a bag on their own with a small sachet of Salt you could add to the bag, pinch the top and shake to cover the chips in the salt so Ready Salted just refers to the fact that you don't have to salt them yourself anymore!
I’m sure they are still available I think the brand smiths might have done them little packet that was so fun as a kid
Do you remember Smith's salt and shake with the salt in the little blue packet.
Wouldn’t that be “already salted”? 😂
@@MGForums Never bought a ready meal? They cunningly are not called already meals.
Yeah Smiths Salt n Shake... I also remember Discos done a take on this with added "flavour packets" that would boost the flavours to an almost un-palatable level.... Mmmm MSG...
It's a pity Brannigan's stopped making their lamb and mint sauce crisps. They were fantastic.
Agree. I blame Walkers for pushing all competition out of every shop
Sensations Lamb and Mint are back in shops now and they are the bomb
@@leejones4757I work in a Tesco express and we had a whole cage of the lamb and mint sensations like 2 weeks ago and they all went in a couple of days
Damn that sucks.
Its a shame Brannigan’s disappeared full stop
I owned a store selling British food in Germany in the 80s and 90s and was surprised that Salt and Vinegar was by far the most popular flavour with my German customers. We probably sold 3 times as many as any other flavour.
I'll never understand how anyone can dislike pickled onion flavoured crisps, they're the pinnacle of snack food👌
They’re gross
They're amazing
Pickled onion walkers are the boss. Absolutely unreal.
Smelling 🤮
@@jamesdarbyshire203 smelling 🤮 but taste 👌
Soon as they opened the pickled onion, I literally salivated😂
Lol
My fav. Too expensive these days 😭. I could eat 10 packs in one sitting
Me too :)
Same. I love the pickled onion monster munch
@@rebeccachance95 I miss them so much, can't find them here
Worcester sauce is a liquid condiment in UK made from vinegar, spices, and anchovies. It is used on grilled cheese on toast which is amazing and in stews etc.
Give me Hendoes any day
Honestly get yourself a couple slices of buttered bread and crush some of those cheese and onion crisps up on there! You'll have a tasty sandwich right there! Or add to a ham sandwich. Proper British sarney from my childhood 😊 really makes me want to try US chips to see the difference in flavors that you were on about
Yessss and try to
It with smokey bacon
And try it with salt and vinegar
Who adds ham
Try it with wotsits and salt
Only with real butter.
Fun fact. Prawn Cocktail flavoured snacks normally don't contain any prawn flavour... it is meant to be a replication of the Marie Rose sauce from the classic 1980s appetizer. Which I believe is Tomato, Mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, Lemon juice and black pepper.
That Is a fun fact! Thank you
Paprika fyi
@@senilestix From what I've read and what I remember when my mother used to make it, the paprika doesn't go in the sauce and it's just sprinkled on top of the completed dish... not sure if it's used in Prawn Cocktail flavouring.
does anyone else think that prawn cocktail flavoured crisps tastes like willy lmao?
i figured that out when i was in france once and they had ketchup flavour. it was just immediate "oh this is just prawn cocktail"
Pickled Onion flavour Monster Munch is a British institution! The entire nation grew up on them!
I used to like Brannigan's Beef and Mustard crisps - the mustard had a real kick to it that cleared your sinuses and nasal hairs in one go. Also Walkers used to do Lamb and Mint flavour crisps - they came back to the shelves just the other week, but have gone again. The lamb flavour was really lamby on those (if you like lamb that is).
Lamb and mint are OG crisps
They have a special edition Walkers Sensation out at the moment, for the Kings coronation,
I baught a pack last week, they're called coronation celebration, 'regal lamb and mint'. They're good.
I got the last bag Tesco had the other week, but I haven't seen them since, unless they just get snapped up the moment they hit the shelves. They used to be a regular flavour back in the '90s.
@@AdriaUK sensations are always nice. At least the sweet chilli and roast chicken and thyme ones are
I be 7 decades on this here "blessed plot", cp, never had'em. Speak for ya self, charlie.
I'm from the UK and i loveee the Marmite crisps!, whats strange though is you guys hated the pickled onion monster munch, its really popular here!
I LOVE the marmite crisps but OMG! The heartburn after takes me out for hours, even after 2 Lansoprazole.
Someone should send them some Twiglets 🙂
MONSTER MUNCH PICKLED ONION IS LIKE THE BEST ONES YOU HAVE THERE IN FRONT OF YOU. pickled onion is SO nice. you liked the spicy monster munch but not those ones?? you got it the wrong way round.
Fun fact - Ready Salted are called Ready Salted rather than original because when crisps were first sold, you had to add your own salt if you wanted it, otherwise they were just plain fried potato. Some even came with a sachet of salt inside to give you the choice. So "Ready Salted" was a marketing thing, "crisps where we've already added the salt for you."
You can get Walkers, Smiths, Salt and shake crisps. A copy of the old Smiths brand crisps with a more modern bag (Sachet) of salt rather than the traditional twist of blue paper containing salt..
Yeah, I remember those crisps, Salt n Shake!
I used to love the little blue bags of salt but I also added vinegar to mine and ate them quickly before they got too soggy.😂
oh yes, many years ago. i remember
@@gwendee5070I think you can still get them. You could about 10 years ago. I've not been into a shop since then. (I'm bed-bound & have to do my shopping online.)
Do they still make crisps that are only lightly salted? I used to prefer them to normal ready salted because the latter are sometimes too salty for me. I'm not a fan of salt & shake because the salt is just ON the crisps, & it tastes better for them to be IN the crisps. It's like boiled potatoes: salting the water gives a lovely, uniform salty taste whereas simply putting salt on the potatoes on your plate leaves the insides tasteless.
I don't eat fish or any seafood, but love prawn cocktail. It's just the flavour of the sauce you have with prawns, not the prawn itself, so don't let it scare you off of them!
Too many people just see prawn and not the cocktail. I hate prawns but prawn cocktail crisps are one of my favourites.
@@Nite300 bingo
They go amazing with a tuna sandwich 👌
Ugh same. I love the tangy flavour. Soo good
There isn’t prawn in them it’s basically just ketchup flavoured
Pickled onion monster munch are a strange crisp. Once you get over that inital 'ick' they become incredible. Might take 2 bags, might take 6, but once you're hooked they're on par with flamin' hot.
Fun fact... most people have the same reaction when first trying pickled onion as a child, but then end up loving them. Same with Worcester sauce and Prawn cocktail.
I freakin LOVE the Monster Munch pickled onion flavour! It rocks. Surprisingly, I don't like pickles or pickled anything.
Hahaha same never even tried a pickled onion the smell alone puts me off. But in crisps bring it on lol
Same, they're my 5th favourite yet I hate both pickle and onions.
Pickles (gherkins) taste nothing like onions though
Exactly hahaha pickles suck monster munch are the shit then its weird
@JT pickles are cucumbers, small ones are usually gherkins
You missed the 2 best flavours of walkers, roast chicken and smoky bacon 😍 and there's probably about another 20 flavours
Max kfc crisps are nice.
@@Whodini-Edits omg yesssss
A miss the bbq flavour, I dno if it was called that but was a black packet
@@Whodini-Edits See we do NOT have that in Australia which is frickin weird.
@@OfficialSituation BBQ Rib.
you guys gotta try onion ring crisps, transformer crisps in bbq and the spicy flavour! so good! also the walkers baked in seasalt as well as the cheese and onion
Pickled onion monster munch are legendary!
They get a 10/10 for me :)
Yanks are weird. Pickled onion monster munch are good and so is beans on toast. Keep your biscuits and gravy or scones and vomit which is what it looks like
Fun Fact: Why are Walkers Crisps called Lays? The snack food is exactly the same, but PepsiCo decided to keep the Walkers name to ensure customer brand loyalty in the United Kingdom. Walkers was founded in 1948 in Leicester, England, by Henry Walker. In 1989, Walkers was acquired by Lay's owner, Frito-Lay, a division of PepsiCo. The Walkers factory in Leicester produces over 11 million bags of crisps per day, using about 800 tons of potatoes.
My mate is the CEO for the company that makes the packaging for most British snacks including walkers crisps
Also every packet of crisps expiry date is a Saturday
@@kirstyallison3841 Oooh why is that?
@@ArrKayLondon production week starts on a Sunday, with everything made that week having the same Best Before date. So when the recommended 12 week shelf life is up, the end date will therefore land on Saturday.
Lays taste better 😂
Absolutely heartbreaking that i sat through the majority of this video only to find out you guys hated pickled onion flavour, i was so hyped you were going to love them! 😩
I so agree.
But, I think you need to have gone to a primary school swimming lesson in 1984 and then eaten a packet of pickled onion Monster Munch (which were more potent then) before the genius of pickled onion crisps can EVER be properly appreciated. Sadly, that would involve time travel which Elon hasn't invented yet (or has he?!).
It must have been the way the radioactive pickled onion flavouring mingled with the residual chlorine coating everything that created a tween sensory fever dream.
Happy days! Though probably toxic.
@@Ingens_Scherz u are so in touch with my past life
They aren’t right in the head
How can you disrespect the pickled onion crisps? 🤣. Those flavours are a thing of beauty.
Something I found out recently, is that the Prawn Cocktail crisps are actually made from Tomatoes. My fave Walker of all time is Cheese and Onion. The Coronation Chicken was also really good, but that one was only released for the Queen's Diamond Jubilee, I believe. Fun Fact: Walkers and Lays are the same, but Walkers have been around since the late 1940's until they were bought by PepsiCo in 1989 and Lays were created for other markets. Pepsi kept the name Walkers in the UK to ensure brand loyalty.
Same company but different ingredients. Many US ingredients aren't legal in the UK or EU.
@@speleokeir absolutely true and I’m so glad we make our own without all the harmful stuff .
Hopefully they bring back the Coronation Chicken soon :)
@@user-gt2gm8pr8p ... They have had all sorts of weird flavours as specials, Korma flavour, Tikka flavour, Balti Flavour, Burger flavour, Lamb & Mint flavour, Cheese & Chive, Barbecue, Toasted Cheese, BBQ pulled pork, Baked Bean Flavour, Branston pickle flavour, Brussels sprout flavour, Caribbean Jerk Chicken flavour, Chip shop curry flavour, Chile and Lime flavour, Roast Beef and Yorkshire Pudding flavour, Glazed Ham flavour, Ham and Mustard flavour, Onion Bhaji flavour, Turkey and stuffing flavour, and a whole lot more. 🙂
Prawn cocktail refers to prawns in the Marie Rose sauce, which is made from ketchup and mayo
British crisps used to be stronger flavoured years ago but the trend for lower salt and lower sugar has diluted them. Glad you like Cheesy Wotsits 😊
I do like how they do ‘ legendary’ and ‘ dash of’ flavours now. Legendary being strong flavour and dash of lighter flavour! Love the legendary salt and vinegar!
OG Discos Salt and Vinegar were my go to when they first came out. Now, bland.
Yh but atleats it healthier
Does he like quavers
Hate to tell you Angie, but our taste buds are often weaker as we age.
Max Paprika always used to be my favourite in high school to get from the canteen at lunch. Not a patch on Walkers cheese and onion though. Cheese and onion on a plain buttered piece of bread is next level- with a splodge of salad cream on too! Elite!
Us British love a crisp sarnie 🤤
When I used to live in the Netherlands, the paprika flavour crisps were my favourite, and they had plenty of different kinds of crisps with paprika favour. Then I moved to the UK in 2006 and for several years I was missing the paprika flavour crisps, until I found the Walkers Max Paprika, it brings back those memories I had in the Netherlands, I still have to import some of the foods I used to enjoy there, if only Lays/Walkers made all their products available worldwide and not make it exclusive to certain countries.
Pickled onion flavoured crisps are the all time greats apart from cheese and onion, you don’t like them because it’s already in your head that you don’t like them before you try them. They are delicious
Not true because they thought they wouldn't like prawn cocktail
Ready salted got their name back around 1960, before that crisps where un seasoned, but they included a little bag of salt inside the packet for you to season your own to your personal taste, So when they released them allready salted "ReadySalted" was the ideal name. Decades later a salt your own version came back on the shelves with a little blue bag of salt, for the nostalgic.
You can still get them with the salt sachet, Pepsi Co also bought them (Smith's Snackfood Company) out with Walkers
I remember Smith's Crisps "Salt n' Shake" with the blue packet of salt in them....... God i'm old!
@@mawhiuk They are still around, though obviously it's an incredibly scaled down operation. My local corner shop sells them, and occasionally I'll pick one up for nostalgias sakes.
Been watching you from the beginning of your journey on yt, I'm so proud of how far you have come
Loved this. (1) Worcester Sauce - pronounced 'wooster' sauce folks, its a town in UK. Worster Sauce and Marmite Walkers are proper top 5 tier flavour crisp in UK, in my opinion. (2) Basic prawn cocktail 'chips' and much better than the Quavers. (3) if you eat any form of spicey sauce with your diet, none of those crisps should be 'hot', just a little kick (4) Pickled Onion is awesooome and Monster Munch is best! (5) Squares are best version of Salt & Vinegar.
Generally, there is no bad flavour crisp in UK. UK has best crisps and corn snacks in the world.
If folks try some other brands from UK, I'd recommend McCoys, Brannigans, Jacobs Chedders and Nik Naks - some different flovours that are very good. Keep doing this stuff, so gooood!
Salt n vinegar was blue here, under the Golden Wonder brand and cheese n onion was green. When Walkers bought over Smiths et al, they ruined most of the flavours and textures, while also changing the colours of the packets to salt n vinegar green and cheese n onion blue. It never made sense until you realised they were trying to avoid getting sued.
I miss Walker's chrisps so much since I moved to America, lays are ok but they'll never be as good as Walker
Walkers are Lays, remov the name and they even have the same logo
@@Salfordian different levels of content in the uk theres stricter regulations
@@Salfordian They are not the same. Owned by the same company, and with a near identical logo- but are definitely not the same crisps/ chips.
@@carolineskipper6976 walker’s was already an established company when they were bought out, but the Americans unusually (wisely) decided not to interfere in the running of walker’s or to change the name, Channel 4 did a program on the “crisp wars”
@John Cole Different tatties pal.
The UK in the 60, 70 and 80s had many regional crisp manufacturers ie Smith's, Tudor, golden wonder etc all or mostly were taken over by Walkers, which became britains largest Crisp and snack company.
Quavers and Monster Munch were originally made by Smith's Crisps and Watsits were made by Golden Wonder now part of Walkers and in turn walkers was eventually bought by the US Pepsi co in 1998, where the Walkers logo red ribbon over a yellow sun was transferred to Pepsi co's other European snack / crisp division Lays.
If you want a proper UK, pickled onion sensation then you really need to go for Space Raiders... also they do a Beef and a Spicy, both of which are not bad, but the pickled onion ones rock!
Another solid suggestion from me would be Nik Naks, Nice 'n' Spicy or Rib 'n' Saucy!
I love how I've not watched a single mainstream legacy media broadcast product all week from start to finish but I've just watched two people eat crisps for twenty minutes completely captivated!! 🤣🤣
It’s mad what UA-cam recommends you at times. Funniest video I got recommended was titled postman pat gets bummed lol

@@ASMR.by.HIPPYCHICK Agreed. Pickled onion Monster Munch is god tier.
Walkers Paprika max are my favourite! Also the flavour ingredients have changed over the years like the Salt and Vinegar they did used to have more kick, maybe to do with acid regulators, but some supermarket brands still have this kick which I personally don't like! Another crisp/chip you may want to try is "Nik Naks" there not made by Walkers think KP but are pretty iconic especially the flavour "Scampi and Lemon "and have had a come back recently, but it's not how I remember them as a child they seemed fattier and they used to fill you up more! These are a maize snacks the "Nice N Spicy" and "Rib N Saucy" are great too! As I'm on the subject another one to try from KP is Hula Hoops these are great!
I once received an item in the post which was padded out with foam things very similar in appearance to Wotsits.
There was a leaflet in the box explaining the packaging was wheat based. I couldn't resist trying one. Didn't taste
of anything much but I'm still here to tell the tale.
Pickled Onion Monster Munch is amazing. I do feel the more you eat, the more you’d want it!
Yes definitely 😊
I do prefer the roasted Beef flavour
They made a 'Vanilla Ice Cream' flavoured Monster Munch about 18 years ago..... they were 'different'
@@leejones4757 lol! Sounds mad, but wouldve had to have tried it - just to see!

Missing the entire Sensations range as well.
Roast chicken is a favourite
Love this video. Btw the pickled onion monster much are sweet because I believe they use silverskin pickled onions which are sweet.
Also the paprika max are my favourite walkers crisps.
Salt and vinegar in uk use to be blue packet and green packets where cheese and onion
But somewhere down the line they changed salt and vinegar from blue to green
You need to try Frazzles, Nice and spicy Nik Naks, Scampi and lemon Nik Naks, Bombay bad boy pot noodle and Tizer.
Nik Naks are the dog's bollocks! My #1 crisp by a country mile!
Looooooove scampi and lemon niknaks

Lea and P.
As a crisp connoisseur, it is great to see your reactions. The variations in taste expectations from different nations or regions is fascinating.
The fact Stevo used to fly to the UK JUST for Pickled Onion Monster Munch tells you how good they are.
Keep up the good work, love your videos
I've a suggestion what you can do with all the uneaten crisps- put them all in a big bowl, mix them up, and then invite friends or family over to play Guess the flavour". Could be real fun!😁

@@samuelpinder1215 That's what makes it fun!!😂
Yes that is absolutely what you should do

sometimes the crisps taste better on a buttered sandwich &
I believe the Prawn cocktail is just the flavour of the Prawn cocktail sauce
Yup. The flavour is the Marie Rose sauce. No prawns at all.
Prawn cocktail sauce is very different in the US. No mayo. More a spicy tomato salsa/ sauce
Agree, crisp sandwich’s are another British staple.
Pickled onion monster munch on a buttered roll...
Loved your excitement at finding these crisps you where proper chuffed
I put salt vinegar crisps in my cheese and mayo sandwiches. I recommend everyone try it.
Worcestershire is pronounced Wuss-ter-shear its a very distinctive flavour. You can add it to various sauce based foods (it's basically a vinegar)
Depends where you live. I pronounce it wuster.
@@SUPPS2GO same here
I can't believe you didn't like Walkers pickled onion, they're the best crisp followed closely by Worcestershire sauce, I literally eat multiple bags of those every day

@@coreyking1511 They probably have, I can't find them anywhere either
Pickled onion walkers are the best type of crisps in human history.
They stopped making them last year.

Loved pickled onion monster munch as a kid and forgot it even existed until this video!
Skips prawn cocktail another childhood favourite.
I remember a few Christmas's back the Brussels sprout flavour walkers, I liked them
"we're getting down to some of the weird flavours now" holds up literally the best flavour
Prawn cocktail flavour is not the prawn itself but the sauce that goes with it. It is basically 1000 island dressing.
I love to see Americans doing this kind of thing. Apart from being very entertaining, it should show people if not necessarily across the whole world then at least people in the UK that 99.9% of Americans are LOVELY. I was born British, but I lived in the US when I was a kid and those were the happiest days of my life (because of people like this - always kind and always interested). I was very sad when dad's posting ended and we had to go back.
Why was it so wonderful. Well, watch people like these two great folks for a short while, and you'll know!
Would defo recommend Walkers Thai sweet chili sensations
Worcestershire sauce crisp are loverly, especially the normal walkers ones in purple pack

Empty all the bags into a Tupperware tub, and do crisp roulette!
Hahahaha, great idea!
Honestly I wish they still sold the chilli&chocolate flavour they did for a limited run back when I was younger it was perfection in crisp form
I love walkers, but have you tried Seabrook crisps? They sre made in the city i live in snd they make some of the best tomato ketchp, prawn cocktail snd salt n vinegar crisps

LOL. Picked Onion Monster Munch are my absolute favourite: I could happily eat 10 bags of them! Amazing how your taste is SO different from mine :)
When I was growing up the two major UK brands of crisps/snacks were Smiths and Golden Wonder. And crisps were royal blue = ready salted; light blue = salt and vinegar; green = cheese and onion. Then at some point in the mid-late 80s this 'new' brand appeared down south called Walkers. And their bag colours were the opposite, so we were always grabbing the wrong flavour. Within the space of 2-3 years Golden Wonder had disappeared off the shelves and supermarkets stocked only Walkers or their own brand, with Smiths only selling the plain/blue salt bag or snack products. Golden Wonder's roast chicken crisps were the best; Walkers' cricken crisps taste too much like stuffing. Their crisps are also thinner so when you open a bag it's mostly crumbs. Also, their bags were also several grams less content than the other brands for the same money (or more).
The best flavours for me are the meaty ones: chicken, roast beef, bacon (and prawn cocktail). Walkers introduced a lamb & mint flavour about a decade ago. They disappeared after a year or so, though - probably didn't sell very well. They reappeared when Walkers started doing the 'Sensations' brand, but again they didn't last very long. So, you can imagine how delighted I was that they brought them back as one of the 3 Coronation special limited edition flavours. Sadly, our supermarkets sold out of the lamb & mint very quickly, so that's it. They're gone again.
Flavours go in cycles, though, and nearly everything here is 'sour cream & chive' or 'sweet chilli'. Don't like either of those flavours at all. I buy the supermarket own brand 'sharing' packs (ie 100g or more) in the beef/steak/prawn flavours (depending on which shop).
You seemed to go for several in the same flavour family (2 x pickled onion, cheese & onion, and salt & vinegar). But you didn't try any of the wonderful BBQ beef/sizzling steak type of crisps at all.
Over in the uk we have a shop called spar and it has salted lays in that shop I love those type of lays they are so good!!!
Pickle onion monster munch is my favourite 😂
The fear you guys had for Flamin Hot Monster Munch, and then the slow realisation that they're fantastic
The fact that Monster Munch Pickled Onion is one of the nation’s favourite, that reaction caught me off guard! 0.5 love it 😂🤣
If you haven't already,you guys need to try Kettle crisps. I don't eat crisps very often,but the Sweet Chilli and Sour Cream are my favourite so far.
Crisps began in a garage in Cricklewood (UK) in 1920, when a man named Frank Smith started making potato crisps with his wife. The story goes that Mrs Smith cut and fried the potatoes, while Mr Smith packed the crisps and sold them in the pub next door, the Cricklewood Crown. Probably where the Smith Crisps brand first started
They used to sell them in pubs and gave people blue ceramic salt cellars. They kept getting stolen so the Smiths started adding a blue sachet made from paper with a portion of salt inside.
The first recorded recipe was actually from a cook book in the 1830s …
Worcestershire sauce was invented in the (then)town of Worcester, England(AKA Worcestershire). The locals pronounce it Wooster (like rooster wit a w) and call the sauce simply "Worcester(Wooster) sauce".
Fun fact / The monster munch arnt monster feet, If you turn them upside down its a monster standing.
Also our crips used to be alot stronger in flavour but alot of them lost artificial flavouring & america kept artificial flavours
In the Netherlands, Lays Original is also red, while Cheese and Onion is yellow (and Patatje Joppie, which is a sauce you can put on fries).
This was fun watching!
I live 3 miles from the main UK factory for Walkers, in the city where the brand started.
Although Lays and Walkers are both owned by PepsiCo, they aren't the same company, and their crisps/chips are similar but not the same.
I much prefer the crisps that are literally slices of potato to all the 'blown polystyrene' type.
The Max ones are Ok, but I find them too thick really.
My favourite is the classic cheese and onion.
I will eat a cheese quaver though.
Beef & onion are nice.
Walkers Cheese and Onion is by far and away the most popular crisp in the UK.
Once you get into them they are so moreish.
Oooooh no no no that’s usually what’s left in our house, no one here likes cheese and onion!
@@ElliePopsBespoke send them my way :)
You got to the pickled onion monster munch and said you got to the weird flavours, that’s the regular monster munch flavour! 😂 tomato ketchup, Worcestershire (wustersher) sauce, marmite - I haven’t seen any of those flavours for literally YEARS! My favourite crisps are BBQ Bugles, my daughters are French fries.
Fun fact; salt and vinegar used to be blue and cheese and onion used to be green. Walkers swapped them over a few years ago!
Also, the Max crisps are around, but are classed as a more premium crisp and aren’t as popular
Gutted to see you had no seabrook crisps on there, or burtons fish n chips, or even smiths scampi or bacon fries!
10:27 it's weird it changed at some point, I remember in the 90s salt and vinegar being blue
The Jalapeno and cheese flavour MAX strong are properly hot! The prawn cocktail MAX strong are really hot too.
They're advertised as beer crisps over here, i eat them with beer whilst my tongue is on fire, makes you drink more beer lol, but it's addictive!
They're not that hot honestly
@@Anonymous25012 they're as hot as a jalfrezi, madras, vindaloo or bag of Sri Lankan chevda mixture. That's hot for crisps, are you doing the macho it's not hot for me thing or something?
I grow my own chillies and make my own chilli sauce, I put chilli in pretty much everything, Walkers MAX Jalapeno and cheese flavour are properly hot crisps mate.
The reason they are called ready salted is that in the olden days (also still available) Crisps came with a little small blue packet of salt that you added yourself! but these are Ready etc etc!
We need a part 2 now where you tried the beef and onion, BBQ, smokey bacon, roast chicken ect.. if you want the best try walkers sensations. Very nice flavours and I would say the Thai sweet chili are the best. Great video as always guys.
What's going on? Pickled onion Monster Munch is my all-time favourite! 😲
as a British citizen i personally LOVE pickled onion monster munch! i get why the strong punch to the American taste buds is strong but you don't have to go 0.5! a 4 and over is acceptable and my opinion is 7 and a half
They're allowed to not like something
Na man, anything less than a 9.9 is just wrong 😂
When I was a kid, pickled onion crisps were the cool thing to have. Or prawn cocktail was quite a novelty. Walkers swapped the colour of cheese and onion and salt and vinegar crisps years ago and I've never got over it. Although I think I read it never actually happened somewhere but I remember it distinctly lol. I love cheese and onion
Golden Wonder had the colours the right way around, when I was a kid Golden Wonder was the main brand before Walkers came on the scene
I always get them the wrong way around too.
yeah they 100% swapped them but claim they never? weird, mandela effect
@@jaybe2908 And Golden Wonder were FULL of flavour!! I loved their Beef and their Spring Onion flavours 😂🇬🇧
Walkers have a fancy edition bag of crisps called walkers sensation comes in Thai sweet chilli or roast chicken with thyme they are divine
We have lays in South Africa, also yellow ready salted, and blue and green are reversed.
The walkers max hot crisps are good because they build up too so the more you eat thr hotter it gets. I think they're fantastic!
Walkers are a very popular mainstream brand that you'd find basically everywhere in the UK. Not bad but nothing special.
For a more gourmet snacking experience I highly recommend trying:
Kettle Chips (especially their Sea Salt & Crushed Black Peppercorns flavour),
or Tyrrells (esp. Mature Cheddar and Chive),
or Real Handcooked (esp. Ham and English Mustard).
Look for Henderson sauce crisps and yorkshire crisps and kettle chips they are just so nice
It's only Walkers crisps in the UK which use the colour green for salt and vinegar. And a fun fact, all crisps like these, no matter which brand always have a use by date which is a Saturday.
