Walkers Flavours Of The Decades Crisps: Coronation Chicken etc

-
walkers coronation chicken crisps

Today I'm back with yet another Spotted In Shops - this time focusing on the new Walkers Crisps "Flavours of the decade" range. I saw these in Sainsbury's Express, however they will no doubt be available in other stores soon. This range marks Walkers' 70th Anniversary and the flavours are inspired by every decade they've been making crisps. Interesting fact: Walkers were founded in Leicester in 1948 by Englishman Henry Walker.

Walkers Crisps Coronation Chicken - 1950's
The classic curry sandwich filling in crisp form? Yes please!

A variety based on melted cheese...

Walkers Crisps Sweet Chilli - 2000's

I don't recall this particular variety...anyone else?

That's all for today - I have to say I think this range is a fantastic idea because, who doesn't love a bit of nostalgia? If you remember any of these flavours from the past or have tried them, do let me know in the comments!

    I am currently eating a pack of the lamb and mint ones and they are okay I guess. I think theyre not based on past walkers flavours per say but instead on food fads of that particular decade x

Pringles Salted Egg Review

-

Another weird snack and this time it’s Salted Egg Flavour Pringles! These are apparently popular in other parts of the word so maybe not as weird as they may seem to us Brits... and they’re actually not so bad! Not as eggy as I expected - I had visions of an awful gaseous pong coming from the tub, haha! - but just a slight salty egg flavour.   If you’re curious, find them from www.gbgifts.co.uk (gifted).

Cadbury Dream Ice Creams - back for Summer! (UK)

-

If you've sorely missed Cadbury Dream White Chocolate since it was withdrawn from UK shelves many years ago, fear not, it's going to be back for Summer, albeit in a colder form - yes, ice cream! Dream Ice Creams have been in shops sporadically for several years now (including a Strawberry variety that was exclusive to Farmfoods) but finally they're getting an official release just for the Summer, yay! It will be sold in major supermarkets in packs of three, and impulse sticks will cost £1.80 from convenience stores. Maybe Cadbury are testing the waters to see how popular they are...who knows, maybe the proper Cadbury Dream bar may be resurrected if sales are good! You can already find Cadbury Dream ice creams in Fultons Foods , a Northern based frozen food store if you're lucky enough to live near one (there's a store finder in the link above). I'm not sure if they sell imports or the official UK version, but here's some I spotted in there recently:

Asda Tinned Banana Blossom Review

Recently, I spotted a totally new vegetable/fruit (not sure which it actually is!) in Asda called Banana Blossom in a tin. It was next to the tins of Jackfruit which is a well known vegan meat alternative. I assumed it was a similar thing so happily bought some to try - it’s £1.50 a tin. The image on the wrapper looked innocent enough - battered fish pieces, only vegan! Surely this stuff must be good? Turns out that packaging was very misleading because nothing could prepare me for the horror that was lurking inside...when I opened the tin it was like opening something from a horror film, discovering the mouldy body of an ancient alien creature or other such evil. It looked hideous!! “Surely this is not meant for human consumption?!”, I thought. Heck it’s not even suitable for bird consumption....I think flies would even turn their nose up at this thing, which looked like rotten infested seaweed. When I posted this on my  Instagram  page the responses were predictably
